Best video card for budget?

Last response: in Graphics & Displays

Hello to all you tech savy people! :) 

I have a rather easy question for everyone that I myself have trouble with. My build is as follows!

Gigabyte ga-970a UD3 AM3 motherboard

Radeon HD 6770 video card

Cooler master gx series 650w psu

AMD FX-8120 processor

8 gigs ddr3 1600

Simply put I built this rig knowing I was buying a lower grade video card, I would care to know what would be the best video cards both radeon and gforce versions I can get that will work with my current computer for around $200? I don't need the best of the best but would like a nice video card that won't need to be replaced for say...about 4 years. This likely doesn't matter but I'm also going to get another 8 gigs of ram along with the new card.

Thank you all for your help, I wish I could figure it out but I am not up to date on computer parts and all these graphic card numbers just confuse me lol.

Thank you all for the quick reply! I definatly now know which card to get in my price range :)  hmm perhaps I should look into a new monitor after saving a bit more, my old one is starting to show its age after...well been over 5 years heh.

Well if you do plan on getting a new monitor make sure to start a new thread here as you have A LOT of good options in the matter lol

Well some bad news...I was going to order the new video card while at work on the cell phone, found a pretty good deal on ebay for a asus radeon 7850 2bg 256bit for $169.00. Then I couldn't figure out my ebay password (durpadurp) so I figured i'd wait till I got home on the computer....and then on the way home I got into a pretty bad car accident, luckily I have full coverage. Needless to say I can pretty much scratch that new video card for now let alone a new monitor :(
