Idea graphics cards for running high quality games?

[chris12o]

Hello, I recently bought skyrim and a couple of other games that ran poorly on my computer. I know the graphics card is my problem because I ahev a quad-core processor and 6gb ram. So I have one question, what is an idea graphics card for running high quality games?

What are the other specs of your system? Monitor size as well.

An Nvidia 560 or HD6870 is enough but a card like the HD7870 is ideal as long as your cpu is fast enough. A card with 2gb vram is a good idea for high res texture packs etc..
