I have a quick question. So, here is my build so far:

Motherboard: ASUS P8P67 DELUXE (REV 3.0) LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel
Processor: Intel Core i5-2500 Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop
Memory: CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
HDD: 120GB SSD
And of course I'll be getting a case, DVDRW, etc. The only thing else of note I can think is the Power Supply 750W.

So, my question is about picking a video card. I don't really want anything too expensive $150-$200. I don't really have a preference between AMD and NVidia.

I was thinking about getting:
1. HIS 6870 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161369
Not 100% on this, was also thinking the 6850 would work.
2. ASUS GTX 560 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121446

I'm not sure what the most video card intensive thing I'll be doing is. Adobe web developer suite stuff maybe.

Any thoughts.
