That'd certainly be your best bet for around $200. Though you'd have to make sure your PSU was up to the challenge and you had a PCI-e slot.
Do you know the information about your computer?

That is so far the best one that has been posted on here, however as has been said before, including by myself, what are the other components that are going to be working with the card that you currently have in your system?

This is made by MSI...30 dollar mail-in-rebate

Free shipping = 200 bucks on the dot. It is also 216 core.
If you wanna stay under 200 from purchase then you could try
4870 - $164 after mail-in

HIS is a good company...they make solid heatsinks too.
Personally I am a fan of Nvidia...I also heard some horror stories about the drivers for the 4870.

If you Google “ATI driver problems” you’ll get 1.1 million hits. If you Google “NVIDIA driver problems” you’ll get nearly 2.8 million hits.

nVIDIA cards are much more common and company built computers have been using them to build PC's more than ATI for a decade.
In other words, people who have no idea buy prebuilt PCs with nVIDIA cards and run into problems.
