So, when I built my new computer, I put an ASUS EAH6670 in it -- low end good enough.

What's out there that's a not too expensive upgrade?

with your price range and current card you will be hard pressed for any dratic performance increases, the 550 ti is about as cheap as you can go and still be worth the upgrade other wise it would be better to save up till you can spend about another $100 more
