I am looking to buy a new graphics card. I am looking for a 100$ one, but I can go up to about 150$ if its that good. Any suggestions? EDIT: Here are some specs of my computer 600W PSU and 2 PCI-E slots

give us the rest of your specs [editline]03:28PM[/editline] or chances are we'll have another thread asking why his 250W PSU won't power it, or why it won't fit into his AGP slot
600w psu and 2 pcie slots are not the specs of your pc though you should go for the ones that ferrus had posted. If the 4870 is too much, go for the 4850 and look onto crossfiring them later on if possible

The 5770 costs the same, performs the same, and has DX11.

[QUOTE=GamerKiwi;22581081]Don't get a 4870. The 5770 costs the same, performs the same, and has DX11.[/QUOTE] That 5770 is 14% more expensive and performs 10% worse than the 4870.
