Hello, I'm planning to put in a new video card in my computer to replace crappy integrated graphics (got the computer from my dad, re purposing it for gaming)
I do mainly plan on using this computer for gaming at 1920x1080 resolutions. I'll be playing games like Mass Effect 2, Shogun 2, COD:Black Ops, and the Old Republic and Mass Effect 3 when they come out at mid to high settings, and maxed out if possible. I don't really have a preference when it comes to ATI or Nvidia and I don't plan on doing Crossfire/SLI, and don't plan on overclocking either
Specs:
AMD Phenom x4 9650 @ 2.3 Ghz
MSI MS-7548 motherboard
650w Corsair PSU (recently put this in to replace 300w)
8 GB RAM
Windows Vista 64 bit
By budget is about $200, although I prefer to spend less than that if I can. So, basically, I'm looking for good performance for the price and any recommendations would be greatly appreciated
