I am looking for a new gpu. My price range is less than $200. I like NVidia better than amd. My current card is a radeaon hd 6950, which I think is dying on me because it started to artifact a couple of months ago when gaming. I believe I have a 700w Corsair psu. I don't know how to check for sure. I need something that will run ARMA 3, War Thunder, Battlefield games, and planetside 2. The less expensive the better, but something better than my current card. Thank you for you help.
 
Couple of GTX760 at just around $200. The nicer ones will be a little more expensive. EVGA GTX750Ti FTW edition would be the next card down without going back a generation on technology. (GTX670 or GTX660Ti)

R9-280 (HD7950) would be quite a bit under $200, and there are a few off-brand R9-280X at around $200. R9-270X (HD7870) would be probably be as fast or slightly slower then the HD6950.

I should add, that anything less then these choices will likely be slower then your HD6950, second fastest single GPU from AMD from its generation.
