Graphic Card for AsRock x79 Extreme 9 under $300

[jeda-mul7]

I need a graphic card for my new build: AsRock x79 Extreme 9, Intel i7 3820 quad core 3.6GHz, Kingston Hyper X Beast 16GB (4x4GB) 2400MHz, I will only be using one monitor and I want a card with at least 2GB. The support list shows a number of cards but I was wondering is anything else can work, budget is within $300.

I second the 7950 option. Either of these cards are good for around the same price.

Interesting choice to spend less on your GPU than your motherboard...

Anyways, at $300, your best option is the 7950 or 660ti - take your pick. I'd recommend the 7950.

Thanks BigMack, any specific brands?

Thanks alot I'll go for the 7950, I've been stuck all morning trying to decide.
