    Recently, my 3870 died on me giving me a complete black screen while playing Crysis 2 Demo. So at the time being i have up to a max of 164 dollars to spend on a new gpu, preferably an ATI Crossfire enabled for future upgrades. So i was wondering if someone could give me a few pointers on some of the good gpus out there at the moment. I've already gone out and searched for a few myself and got these results.

    edit: if I'm lucky i can convince my parents to get me something like these instead but the chances are slim.

    if you can afford one now id suggest the gigabyte super overclock hd5770 thats what ve had for the past 5 months or so and never had any issue
    If you can get your parent to help you and fork out the rest then the 6870 would be your best bet

    well originally my parents were gonna pay for it all, i was just hoping i would get lucky and some how be able to convince them of more. However now, they just brought up the whole economical thing on me and now im getting nothin, not even the gigabyte gpu; gotta save up myself from the extra dimes and quarters i get everyday. Anyways, thanks for the time and effort.
