Hi everyone. My 8800GT recently died and I was wondering which video cards you guys think would pair up nicely with my system. Some of the games I play include: WoW, SC2, NBA 2K11, BF:BC2, Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age 2. I'm looking for a card that would be able to handle those levels of games on high settings at 1920x1080 (60+ fps), save for maybe Dragon Age 2. I also plan to play BF3 and it would be nice to have it play at low-med settings at 1920x1080. Another thing to consider is that I might upgrade my MB/CPU within year or two so I would have the option of SLI/Crossfire for this card. Budget is $200 max, $150-180 ideally. Here are the rest of my system specs:

MB: Gigabyte EP45-DS3L (no SLI/Crossfire)
CPU:C2D E8500 3.16 GHz (open to OCing to 3.8-4.0 when I'm not too lazy)
RAM: 4GB G. Skill
PSU: Corsair 750TX
OS: Windows 7 x64

Thanks in advance!
