Hey guys,

My friend would like to know what GPU to use with his build. 

Here is his build as it stands:

Please help me and him out by telling me what GPU he should use for best performance while not overdoing the price.

 

Thanks,

Geordan

With that kind of budget you could get a much better overall system. ;)
