Did Blizzard just hotfix an ilvl requirement onto Awakened LFR?

I was wondering what the best bang for your buck card would be for a system using a 520W psu. Currently using a Gigabyte Windforce HD6850. Rest of my system specs are in my sig if that matters at all.
Thanks

A couple questions. First, what is your budget? Almost any card can fit that PSU. The second question is, what brand PSU, as almost any card can fit that... unless it's not a great brand/quality.
In the meantime, moving this to Build/Upgrade subforum!Gaming: Dual Intel Pentium III Coppermine @ 1400mhz + Blue Orb | Asus CUV266-D | GeForce 2 Ti + ZF700-Cu | 1024mb Crucial PC-133 | Whistler Build 2267
Media: Dual Intel Drake Xeon @ 600mhz | Intel Marlinspike MS440GX | Matrox G440 | 1024mb Crucial PC-133 @ 166mhz | Windows 2000 Pro

Best bang for the buck card is HD7950 without a doubt (excellent performance+free games). You can get it as low as ~$200USD at newegg.com although I'd prefer a Sapphire one which you can get for $260USD.

Any of those cards should be fine with your PSU given the rest of your system specs.
