Do you have a budget? If not then I'd suggest an 8800 GTX for the gaming side while if you do have a budget look at Tom's Hardware where there is a "Best Video card for the money" section(I didn't see one for June yet but it is early in the month at the moment.

I think the average price of the 8800GTX is running around $600. It is a smokin card and you would not regret it, however they do have a 8800GTS which is suppose to be a bit cheaper than the 8800GTX
