Thats not too bad... 40-50 bucks over internet asking price. Best buy is notorious for ripping people off on video cards.

Newegg.com is really the place to go for these purchases in the future...

ATI Radeon 5800 chipsets are one of the biggest leaps in performance of the graphics  card in a long time. The HD 5870 easily took first place for performance over a single GPU when it happened, but it has recently been supplanted by the GeForce GTX 480. The HD 5870 1GB GDDR5 board and a base clock speed of 850MHz, as well as full support for DirectX 11. It is in your budget also .



There are so many graphics card are available. HD 5770 1 Gb card is the best graphics card under $200. This card is part of ATI’s new DirectX 11 range of cards, featuring the latest stream technology.

- GTX 460s




edit: I see you've already got your card. But I'll leave my previous comment.

Why not get the 460 GTX 1gb instead of 768? I remember seeing performance benchmarks saying this helped in certain cases. Particularly if you're doing a 1 gpu solution. I got mine for 180 with MIR about a month ago.  There were some better deals on black friday, but its too late now.

The 460 gtx's overclock extremelely well too. So make sure you do that. I believe in benchmarking an overclocked 460gtx can match or beat a 470gtx (much more expensive card).

I upgraded from 2 8800 gt sli's (I did this so I could sell the cards and the upgrade not costing a lot, and enable sli in the future) to 1 460gtx and with it overclocked it does a little better...
