GTX 650 is one of the best cards that's available within your price range

6670. it is within the price range and is the highest performing gpu which can crossfire with your a8 3870k graphic card

 

[xerxies24]

is it compatible to my system?

 

[Maziar]

Yep,I however recommend getting a better PSU though. Generic PSUs aren't good at all
A decent 500-600W PSU should do the trick

alright. thanks Maziar.. now i finally have decided which gpu should i get one. just one last question. some of the people i ask in the store recommend the radeon series gpu like 7770. why is that?

 

[Maziar]

7770 is a good card but it's over $100,that's why I didn't recommend it.

I agree. You can crossfire the 6670 as I have and use the discreet graphic card of the APU with the Radeon 6670. If you use the GTX, the APU's discrete graphics wont run and u you end up using just the GTX.
