probably going to be getting a new video card as an x-mas present. good thing as im pretty sure my 4870 is on its last leg.
system specs
biostar t-power i45
hd 4870
e2180
4gb ddr2 pc2 8500
1tb and 250gb seagate sata hd's
psu: galaxy dx X 1000w psu
i know my cpu is kinda a bottleneck but i dont play at super high res's or settings. looking for a mid range card(personnel preference is ati/amd). from 100-150 in price or so. just a quick look at newegg and the HIS hd 7770 for ~130 or so doesn't look to bad but im way out of the loop on the new stuff so any advice would be appreciated
edit: i see the hd 7850's are around ~170 i could probably find a used one on a forum for 140-150. thoughts?
