A good card to upgrade to around that range would be looking around at a Radeon 6850, and if your lucky you might be able to find a 6870 for a fairly decent price.

Also, what kind of games are you looking at playing?

Skyrim, (When I buy it) Uh COD4, BO , WAW, MW2 and Plenty more games in the future, but I just hate running at low resolution and then the games still crash because of my shitty card.

Well, if you could be patient, as I just checked on prices for the 6850 and such, about 20-30 more dollars saved will guarantee you a card that will run Skyrim on Ultra with a few tweaks here and there, I own a 6850 at the moment and play at 1920x1080. I run BF3 on High no problem. MW2 and WAW you'll have no problems maxed out as well as COD4.

You could buy it at best buy, I'm not positive if your store will have them in stock or carry them. However, if you buy it in store, I'm gonna say that they'll run the price around $150-170. Depending on what resolution your gonna be playing on, about the lowest I would go for 1080p would be a Radeon 6790 ~120ish. Another suggestion would be to look for a GTX 560, I believe you can find one around $130.
I'll message you a link if I can find one around that price range.

I'll check around Amazon as well since I haven't really checked around too much yet.

This would be a better choice for that range, better specs and from a quick look at some numbers the 6790 is around 30-40% better.
