Either R9 280x or GTX 960.

It would be more ideal for you to tell us your total budget, then we can make adjustments as necessary.

But for around that price, you'd be looking at getting something like a GTX 960 or an R9 380. Or even an R9 280X tbh.

The 280 and 280x both out-perform the 960.

For around $200, it would be wise to go with the 280 as the 3gb vRAM can be beneficial as games are getting more demanding. It is an average amount.

Or if you want to go $10 over, get the 280x, but its not worth it imo.

$205 with $20 promo card. 960 isn't even close to one of the best choices for $200. 380>280x>285>280>960.
