Im building a new system that I want to be able to crank up the resolution and play some games when i need to and I wanted to know the best video card that would do that for me without spending too much cash. Its going to be a mATX system and I just want to run single. It will be an overclocked opteron system with 2GB of GSkill ram. Any input would be great, thanks.

With out knowing your budget, or what games you want to play or at what resolution... I would have to say the 7800GT for $300.

If $300 is too much maybe the 6800GS for $200.
 
well right now probably just BF2, FEAR, and Doom 3. What kind of resolution would I get out of the 6800gs?

I second both of those options. If you're moving into the >$300 region, then I'd say the 7800GTX would fit the bill.
 
well Id like to spend less than 250 as long as I can get some good performance in the games I listed. The GTX a little more than I want to spend right now.
