I would venture to say that you can't really go wrong with a 5850.

Unless you particularly want nvidia, in which case the GTX 460 is supposed to be a really good card.

I was under the impression RTS games didn't need good computers because they weren't very graphically intense.

Anyway, if you want Nvidia the 460 gives the most bang for your buck, and it'll last a few years.

Before you get a good, powerful card, what kind of power-supply do you have? Can your system even handle the 5850? Would suck buying a good card and your system couldn't handle it, or worse you have PSU failure.
