What video card has the best bang for the buck?

I have a HP computer running Windows 7 Home Premium. it has 500gb hard drive and 6 gb of ram. what video card would you recommend for gaming and graphics? preferably HD capable since my monitor is an HD screen. It needs an upgrade because it has just the integrated video card in it now. also can someone reccomend a good blu-ray player and/or writer?|||As they said try new egg and or tiger direct but before you do make sure you check the wattage of your power supply and if you have the 6 pin supplemental connector that most of the better cards are going to require. You may also want to check out the nvidia site they have an inter-active tool where you select the wattage of your psu and your price range then they give you some options of cards that fit your needs. Then take the list and shop around on tiger direct or new egg for the best price. With out knowing the specs of your computer this is the best advise that I can give other than throwing out random card names and numbers that you may or may not be able to run without a power supply upgrade like everyone else.|||Go to newegg.com Search video cards and then check reviews by customers They are pretty good with pricing too. All the specs are available on their website, but you can always copy and past the make and model into google and check out other specs and reviews. Another good site is Tigerdirect.com. Same basic principle as newegg.|||NVIDIA: 8800 gtx, nvidia 250 gts core edition or 260 gts





ATI: any from the 5000 series|||thats what she said...
