If I'm going to spend 200 bucks... is it better to get a good 7950 or is it worth it to get the 8600 or 8800 but obviously one of the lower ends of these models. I'm pretty sure I've decided nvidia over ati so now I'm left with this decision. What do you think is the best way to go?

Thanks
 
I personally love by 8800 GTS. Some of the models are decent budget GPU around the 200 mark and it's future proof a bit more than the 7950 since it's a Dx10 card.
 
Right now is a bad time to only have $200 to spend on a graphics card.. you could either buy a great DX9 card and miss out on DX10, or buy a less than optimum DX10 card and miss out on some of DX10's beautiful eyecandy.. if i were you i'd save a little more and go for a 8800gts, as stated above. :)
