At that price range you can get the ATI 6950 or the Nvidia 560TI. If you are running an AMD chip/board I would prob go with ATI and if you are running an Intel chip/board then prob Nvidia is the way to go. Your choice. Hope this helps.

since you have an i7 i would recommend the 560TI

Intel CPUs play best with NVIDIA as AMD plays well with ATI.

At your price range i dont think you can get the 2 gig card, but it will still be plenty powerful with the 1 gig.
