Today I am planning to go down on boxing day and pick up a few items to finish off my system and saw this card for sale at my local shop

http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_557_559&item_id=043690

The price is normally 259.99 and I save $50.00 ($30.00 saving + $20 MIR) for price of $209.99

Is this a good card for bang for your buck or is there something else I should look at.

Really appreciate some help as some people have suggested I should just get a ATI 6950 instead but again I don't which one as there are so many here for sale and I have no clue http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?cPath=43_557_558&sort=0&brand=0&price=2&location=0

I wasn't sure if it was a good buy or if there was something better I could bought at my local store www.canadacomputers.com

I was just curious to ask as there are so many cards and reviews and such.

If I didn't choose this card what would of been another choice you think I could of gotten from the card listed here to consider:

I just ask because I like to learn.
