What is a good graphics card and the price for it? 

lol not mine. GTX 680 is amazing but super expensive, I would recommend a GTX 550 TI, my old one, which could handle most games (2010 and back) at max graphics.

GTX 660Ti is a good one. I'm gonna buy one myself.

 

Look at the EVGA GTX 660ti 2gb Superclocked, it's only $300 and can run every game on max settings. Runs BF3 on max at 60fps.

Oh by the way make sure not bottleneck your system like I did!

Should this question be in this thread?;

Otherwise though, the 550Ti is great if you're on a budget; it is what I currently have in my rig and I can run most games at relatively good settings.  They can be had for about $120-130 nowadays.

 

Concerning GTAIV, it holds up rather well;

How much and how do I know I won't bottleneck my system ?

My GTX 680 was $600. Bottlenecking is when you have an extremely powerful GPU, like me but a weak CPU. And vice versa. Basically, I have so much power from my GPU but I can't use its full ability because my processor isn't has beastly. But you don't need to be super anal about this, don't think that because your getting a new GPU you have to go out and spend $200 more on a CPU. Just in my case, because my GPU in incredibly powerful.
