Running windows 7 pro
AMD phenom II x4 940 running at normal clock speeds
8 gigs of 1066 ram.
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro

Pretty much the only recent card in that price range is the geforce 660 Ti.

If you are willing to put up with some mail in rebates, a 670 can come in as low as about $330, but I wouldn't recommend spending that much since the high end leaning cards like it are probably going to be replaced by next gen parts within 2-3 months for about the same price. The mid-range stuff like the 660 Ti on the other hand are likely to take 6-8 months to see replacement parts filter down, so now is as good a time as any to buy one.
