I have a quad core 2.66 gigahertz cpu with 4 gigs of ram. and a 750 wat power supply What card should I get for a price range of 200$ that will allow me to play on high or ultra graphics with 60 fps?|||The top 3 popular graphics card are currently:
In order of price and performance (descending)

Radeon 6850 http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductLis…

POWER REQS:
500 Watt or greater power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express power connectors recommended (600 Watt and four 6-pin connectors for AMD CrossFireX technology in dual mode)
and just a by the way i used to be EXTREME nvidia fan, but i have come to learn with my experiencee that AMD makes a betterchip set!
Hope i was of help, but either way Good luck, It's always exciting to upgrade your computer!|||Your only reasonable upgrade would be a HD 5770, which should be about $125 or so.
You can go with a HD 6850, but you'll be spending extra money for no extra performance.
While your current video card is definitely a bottleneck, your CPU has a relatively low clock speed. A HD 6850 or better would be bottlenecked by the 2.6GHz CPU.
If you want better than an HD 5770, you should get yourself a Phenom II processor around 3.3GHz or faster to go with it. (a dual core at 3.3GHz would perform better for gaming than a quad core at 2.6GHz)
But the HD 5770 should perform quite well on your current system.|||consider these:
1.hd6870
2.hd6850
3.460gtx hawk edition from msi.
560gtx is highly reccomended if u can spend a little more.
