Suggestions for med range video card

[pillar]

Ok so I have a 9800gt, but considering upgrading it. Even tho min stats for video games is getting up there (Crysis still holds max @ 8800gt last time i checked), what do you people feel is a new good medium? I was thinking somewhere in the gts 200 area. Not sure how an ATI Radeon HD video card will handle w/ my motherboard (it has nvidia chipset built into it). Ive heard that they work alot better now & days than they have in the past. Ive personally always gone w/ nvidia in the past for their reliability as well as cooling ability.

Whats your price range? GTX 460 is only 200$ ish and preforms extremely well.

Price is the determining factor.

$200? GTX 460 no doubt.
$150-170? HD 5770.
$130-150? HD 4870.
$100? HD 5670.
$60? HD 4670.
Anything beneath that is just rubbish.

Ya I looked into it. $200 is my limit. I appreciate all the feedback. I may look into the 5670 (unless i can find another ati radeon 5xxx within a similar price range).

Those are high end, not med range. -.-

And since your limit is $200, why not get a GTX 460 or HD 5770?
(The GTX 460 is much better)

9800GT is better than the 5670
