Currently in the process of building a gaming PC on a budget of A$2000. Just looking for suggestions on Graphic cards.

Mobo - P67 Asus Sabertooth
CPU - i7 2600
RAM - Corsair Vengeance (1600mHz) 3 x 4gb
PSU - Corsair V2 850W
Case - NZXT Phantom
HDD - 2 x Spinpoint F3 1TB

I have about $350 - $400 to work with here.

Thanks in advance.
 
^^ nVidia GTX 570 OR AMD HD 6950 2GB. Best value for money cards currently on the market.

If you can sacrifice the nVidia's CUDA AND Physx feature(s) then the AMD HD 6950 2GB is the best card for your money, Sire. Some reads on the subject --

AMD Radeon HD 6950 Review - TechSpot Reviews / AMD Radeon HD 6970 and HD 6950 Review / NVIDIA Geforce GTX 570 Review - Overclockers Club / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 Review

AMD HD 6950 2GB vs. nVidia GTX 570 --> AnandTech - Bench - GPU11 -- AMD leads on almost all benches, nVidia stakes a claim on CUDA dependent applications, power consumption and heating are AMD's forte since the HD 4*** series.

Hope this helps.
 
Buy HD6970... The 2Gb VRAM would come in handy when future games would require more VRAM...
