4890 or GTX275 for a bit more

OR

4870-1GB or GTX260-55nm to stay in your price range.

Pretty good deal on a 4890 right here:

It's in your budget AR, and it's even cheaper if you use Live.com CB.

Whoa, the 4890 already went that low?! I'd go for it over the Core216.

little OT: reading that thread on slickdeals makes me rofl @ the person who said they're building a custom rig for D3 and upgrading from a 4850 for it. (since it can be maxed out by even lower end cards anyway)
