I'll start by saying this site is great and I have recieved alot of help with my first build which btw is running great, but I was going to upgrade my video card and wanted to stick with AMD ( I guess i've become a fanboy lol) at the moment I have an HIS 6750 that I migrated from my old store bought system and I was wanting to get some opinions on some decent cards around 200 dollars which is my current budget for a card I was thinking of one of these 2 but was curious if it would be a good upgrade

I figured I would stick with HIS since this card I have now has given me no issues at all and can almost max most games this is my current card

brand doesnt really matter but i have heard those 7850's overclock pretty darn good! and are a great price/performance card :)
 
newegg has the following HIS 7870 right at your price range if you can handle the rebate.

I would say that if you are a HIS fan and $200 is your price point, this would be very hard to beat. Recently the free game copy seems to have expired, making this not quite as good of a deal, but the other cards seem to be falling in line for you on this one.
 
a 7850/70 is similar to a 6950, not sure which one wins, but a 6950 with 2GB are a bit cheaper than $200 used if you're lucky
