I'm currently searching for the best bang for my buck for under $150, preferably more like $125. I'm planning on rocking out Diablo 3 with all the eye candy maxed at 1080p. I generally like AMD cards because I like to use my computers as HTPC's occasionally, but am not against Nvidia.
The obvious choice to me is the 6850. The major drawback to it seems to be heat from what I read. I'm not so much worried about it getting hot - I'm worried about exhaust heat. The GPU I think may be the next best option is the 7770. It isn't as powerful for the money, but reviews say it doesn't get nearly as hot.
Any thoughts or suggestions from anyone with experience with these cards?
