Geforce 9800 GTX upgrade options

Hi guys,

Please help.
I want to upgrade my video card but I'm not sure what is compatible with my system. Can anyone please help recommend the best option and the biggest-bang-for-my-buck? Looking into the $100-$200 price range. Thanks!

I just recently came back into gaming. Started playing League of Legends like 3 months ago.
Any idea what is a good video card replacement? Thanks! =)

I'm running a CPU and PSU of a similar era to yours but I don't game with the machine and also have no idea of what that game is or requires. I am interested to see what others might come up with and their reasons why as I do have an idea of what could be run in that machine.
