AnandTech has recently put together a great guide for all of those who intend to upgrade their GPU instead of diving in the next-gen console madness that we are experiencing. Without further ado, here are some of the units they recommend:

Budget - EVGA 256-P2-N443-LX GeForce 7300GT – $75
Midrange Overclocking – EVGA 256-P2-N624-AR GeForce 7900GS
$20 MIR – $185 – $20
High-End – Sapphire 100177L Radeon X1950 XTX – $386

And if you’re really crazy…

Ultra Extreme – 2 X EVGA 768-P2-N831-AR GeForce 8800GTX (SLI) – $1206

Unfortunately, I won’t be upgrading my aging computer any further, because it is now almost impossible to find replacement components for it, however, if I were to choose one of the cards, it would probably be the GeForce 7900GS.

Happy shopping!
