Replacing Card: Advice Needed Please

[SIMP]

Hello All,
Quick question for you, please. I've been using a GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB card but it recently died on me. I need to find a card that is at least comparable to the dead one.

Here's one I've been looking at and was wondering if you could tell me how it compares the old 8800 mentioned above. I really appreciate the input from all.

I am currently looking to spend up to $100 if you'd also like to make some suggestions. Thank you.

It is a better card. I'd say you'd get a noticeable boost in performance

GTS 450 is better for $100

Just ordered a gts 450. Will be $85 after and if rebate is received. Thank you.

I actually ended up with this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127527

Think this will run Black Ops on decent settings?

Search for GTS 450 Black Ops benchmarks and find out.

It'll do fine. Especially if you're running at lower resolutions. The CoD games are only Dx9 so they aren't particularly demanding.

Great, thanks for your advice and input.
