If you still want to stick with Nvidia, I'd recommend going for something like this: Gigabyte GeForce GTS 250 1GB - $119.99 ($99.99 MIR)

If you don't mind going with ATI and paying a little more, there's the Radeon 5770's which will give you a bigger boost in performance. Something like this would be good: HIS Radeon 5770 1GB - $149.99
It has been years since I've used ATI but did they improve their drivers since then?
