Which Graphics Card is the best for the money?

Last response: in Graphics & Displays

I have this gaming system:

GIGABYTE GA-Z68A-D3H-B3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 motherboard

Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155

OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W Power Supply

I play some high performance games like Skyrim, Mirror's Edge, and Assassin's Creed. I tried an EVGA Nvidia gtx 550 ti (1GB) card but it died on me within two weeks.

I researched on this and found 6 possible cards. I can't see much difference between them but if someone could give me a pointer to one of them that would be great. Also, if someone could tell me if the superclocked series is any better. Here they are:

Best solution

This is the the entire thing in a nutshell. The Radeon cards are generally cheaper and consume less power, but they dont have PhysX, even though at the mo there is no Killer App for PhysX it is recommended you have it. In the Nvidia GFX cards the Asus wins HANDS DOWN, not only it has dual fans but the same clock rates as the EVGA Super Clocked, giving cooler core temp and possibly even more Overclocking potential.

So my recommendation : Nvidia
in Nvidia the best card without a doubt is the Asus 560
