All I can think of is the Radeon 9800 pro 128mb or the 6600GT. I don't know what else I can get in this price range. It needs to play new games but I don't go crazy with settings. Help!

x800, meh. The 6600gt (if overclocked) is pretty close in performance, plus with SM3.0 i dont know why you wouldnt get a 6600gt since its in that price range.

The 6600GT is probably your best bet here. 9800 Pro would be a good deal if it was under $80 though.

I was looking at this one. What do you think? I'm only asking because I know there's like 10 diff versions of every model (crippled and such).

eVGA generally has the highest quality of nVidia cards. You would be very happy with the quality and performance of that card.

i tend to reccomnd the MSI version... but it's like $10-15 more... so that might stir you away...
