Here are two others I am now considering based on feedback. Prices are fairly similiar but i have had great luck with XFX cards in general. Thoughts? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150606 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127699 Input has been great by the way, eventually ill be posting to tell you which one I have ended up with =).

So based on what you guys have mentioned here are a couple of cards i have put together for your reviews (some are from ed). Any major difference between manafacturers or better overall quality from one to the other? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125443&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=6146836&SID=1mjzc273eo49y http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125418&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=6146836&SID=5ls2xjd64cux http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161404 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007MLSGHE?tag=hwcompare-20&camp=15309&creative=331477&linkCode=st1&creativeASIN=B007MLSGHE&adid=1KCX3EQX93KT1JP7D47D&ref-refURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hwcompare.com%2F12190%2Fradeon-hd-7870-vs-radeon-hd-7950-3gb%2F Thanks again for all the great input!

If there is something does cost above the $200 mark but not drastically over ($250?) that you guys feel is much better than whats listed above then the input would be appreciated. I am not a big fan of rebates however and I have been keeping an eye out on craigslist, just haven't seen anything for sale in my area recently regarding cards.

So i am currently running a Radeon 4890HD (Old, I know!) and I do a heavy amount of gaming. I wanted to see if I could get any solid recommendations for around $200 US that would be a noticeable difference that what I am currently running. (PCI-E Cards only) The card can not be incredibly beefy either due to limited space in the casing and using a smaller motherboard. Any Advice? Games I play: MMOs - Final Fantasy A realm unborn (Beta stages atm) First person shooters - Counter Strike but will eventually play BF4 once released. Appreciate any help!
