The last I knew, the GTX 460 or the Radeon 6850. I don't believe the GTX 560 has been released yet.

I will be building a new PC but I am trying to hold off to see what Bulldozer offers. I could've bought an i7-2600K for $280 last week and passed.

I have (IIRC) $450 in Amazon reward points from my debit card. So in all likelihood, I should be able to get a CPU and board with maybe $100/$150 additional out-of-pocket depending on board prices. I already bought the RAM and the SSD.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Those assholes at Chase are discontinuing rewards on your debit card, so I think I am going to look for a new reward credit card and ditch one of my existing cards.

how does the i7-2600K compare to the old 9xx rating system? forgive me, I am a little behind on hardware

 

[eldorado99]

looks like the 560 is out.

I believe it is the fastest i7 with the exception of maybe a couple at the top of the 9xx range.
