The 750 ti looks like it might be OK. Anyone using one here?

i have it.it works great.but it was the cheap affordable route -of course there are better but this is low power like the lowest and it plays any call of duty game with great frames.much better then my 8800 or 9800 gts/gtx....plays new game fine

gtx960 at 220 usd

I would go for a 9xx series card,gtx950 or greater, they use a lot less power and run very cool . They are pci-e 3.0 and  they WILL run in a pci-e 2.0 slot

I run 2 970's (not is SLI), I use one for my gaming monitor and one for my other two monitors. In BF4 running everything on Ultra I average 180 FPS. Never a heating issue.
