Cpu: AMD Phenom II 1090T @ 4.1ghz Air cooled

Memory: 1600Mhz 12 gb

Mobo: MSI GD70 790fx

850watt corsair power supply

2x120gb SSD Raid 1 boot.

2x 1tb seagate Constellation 128mb cache

Video card: HD 5770

 

wondering what would be a good card for this system. I've always ran low end cards which limits my experience in gaming. To my knowledge it plays everything I've played with medium-high settings @ 1080P but would like to be able to go to like High-ultra @ 1080P

7970/280x/770--whichever is cheapest.

GTX 760 imho, if you like amd then the 7950 / 7970 (I don't like the drivers but that's personal taste)

 

or a 770 if you can, I personally still max out everything on my 660 Ti though (the 760 supposedly performs a bit better)

The R9 270X is a great $200 budget range card but if you can afford a GTX 770 it would be the way to go for sure.
