Cheap graphics card?

[Mexican Superman]

I've been reading around about graphics cards and figuring out what I want but I need some advice. What is the cheapest graphics card that will be able to maintain a good frame rate on new releases and games to come such as the Crysis 3 beta while all the settings are on ultra at a resolution of 1920x1080. So which is the cheapest card that will do this, I have an Intel i5 3570k CPU if that helps.

Lol it won't be cheap I can tell you that. You will be spending above $300 for that power. Try a Radeon 7970

I know it won't be cheap and I am willing to spend that much but I am just trying to see which is the cheapest to save a little money so I can actually afford the games as well

Ok well you said cheapest, So i thought you wanted to spend $100 or something.

But the 7970 is a good bet. It should run Crysis 3 on Ultra. An alternative is a GTX 680, but thats more expensive.

Thats with low AA btw. If you really want to max out Crysis, you will be looking at 2x 7970 in crossfire
