    Help! need advise on a decent video card

    So I am a bit strapped for cash, but a 80-$100 range on a new video card is my reach. I am more of a console boy, so some advise on a new one would be great. I got a AMD Athlon ll Dual Core. My motherboard is a Asus M4N68T-M2 SKT.AM3 nVidia GF7025+NF 630A,2PCI/1PCI-E X16,2D.DDR3- 1333MHZ, SATA,GB LAN, M.ATX. And I have a 500 watt power supply. I know my budget is on the cheap side and I may just wait till I can save up for a better one, but any ideas would be nice. Thanx in advance.

    HD5770/HD6770 or GTX460 768MB

    These are cards you can often find on sale at ~100 or less, but often require a mail in rebate. For gaming, I wouldn't recommend anything less, or more, than either of those cards for your system.

    just had similar issue to you, tight budget and my good old trusty 8800 gtx died on me.

    plumped for a 6670, doing the job well for what it cost. should be able to find a 6770 in your price range if you shop around!

    I challenge you to find a 460 at ~100. Because 450s on sale right now are $110.

    Check into the low end Radeon 6000 series. Should be able to find you something there.
