Need a budget mid level card...

[FroztBite]

Basically I'm buying a E6750 and need a pretty good video card to go along with it. My price range is $200 and I need the best I can get for it for that price. Suggestions would be nice and benchmarks preferrably Thanks!

That's the problem; I don't think that price point really has much going for it at the moment. You can get a good deal on a 7900GT at the moment (for considerably less than $200). As for benchmarks, you're already on Anandtech so just go to their 'Video' section.

Edit: deals aren't quite as good as I remember from six weeks ago. Hmm... well, try either 7900 series from NVidia or the X1950 series from ATI. Just my $0.02.

I can't seem to find 7900 's any where including newegg. Where could I find a good deal on one?

ATI X1950

NVidia 7950

Others will probably come along and offer their own advice soon, as well.

If you are going to spend $200, might as well get $260 EVGA 8800GTS 320mb. Of course if you play at 1280x1024 or below, X1950Pro for $130 or X1950XT for $170 are good enough (might need to reduce AA in the latest games though).

I'd probably say go for an X1950 series card, they can be had relatively cheap nowadays and a still pretty common.

If you can afford it try to go for an X1950XT, but a PRO is still pretty fast.

Good buy here for a 7900GS
