Hi

As using an AMD fx 8320 go with an AMD vga card within budget

lot's of reviews here - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviewdb/Graphics-Cards/ATI/HD-7850/

Note: when looking at the reviews make sure to keep a note of the system setups that they benchmark the cards with as this effects Max fps.

Edit: Removed Line, as I am unable to locate the source of this information at this time

NB: Nvidia moved the hardware controller from the GTX 6xx serise, CPU now handels the instructions for the 6xx serise cards and work well with Intel CPU's not so well with AMD CPU's

Where did you find that information?

OP: I think a 7850 would be fine. the GTX650ti Boost is a good candidate as well.
