Also evga or azus brand. So many choices!

Also my mother board is the P6X58D-E which only supports PCI-E 2.0 X 16, all the 680's support PCI-E 3.0, that being said I would be losing performance on the 680 card running it on a 2.0 board. I guess my question is would the losses be so small that it would still be worth it? or would it basically be a loss to the point where the 680 running on a 2.0 board be large enough that the 480 would be close in performance on the 2.0 board.

EVGA has ALWAYS taken care of me and their customer service is awesome too.
Go to newegg and you can pair a MOBO and Video Card for a really good deal... it's time my friend, its time!! lol

7850 is pretty good for the price. If you're looking to spend like $100 more consider looking into the 660ti or even the 7950.

1GB Vram should enough for single FHD monitor for most game now. HD7850 performance between GTX650TI to GTX660.
