So I have some gift cards and I am trying to see if i can max them out by buying a video card for a spare computer I have laying around. If you guys could help me find the best "bang for my buck" that would be awesome.

Conditions:
$125 in gift cards (don't want to go much higher then $140)
Going to be used for playing games (all kinds)
Has to be from Amazon.ca (I live in Canada)

I was gonna say a GTX560Ti but they're all above your price range. So now I'm gonna suggest a 6770. I found a 6850, but the Newegg reviews weren't very good.

I'm not much of a Radeon card guy, so I don't know much about them. What would be the disadvantages and advantages of going Radeon? As well, what sort of limitations would this put on a person? ie; play crysis on medium settings?


EDIT: I was looking at the 560 too. might be worth the extra money.

Maybe I should have put 2GB under conditions. I'm kinda nervous about getting a card with less then 1GB. From what I have learned, with newer games, 2GB no less is the best way to go. No?

That was the one I was looking at last night. It should be pretty decent.
