What is your budget? Again I'd wait till 1 week from now to consider your options.

PS: Is ATI compatible with battlefield 2142? Because I thought that I remembered people saying that some video cards were not compatible with that game or something like that. IDK, I will look into compatibility issues tomorrow.

Yes ATI cards are compatible with BF2142, when people say some cards are compatible they are refuring to really old cards, some time mobility cards are supported as well, but because of driver issues.
The budget line from Nvidea was a pretty big disappointment and I don't recommend you buy any DX10 card under the 8800GTS 320mb. Performance per dollar for cards under that make no sence. It'd be better to get a higher end DX9 card for the same price as they guy above me already mentioned.

Scrol down to the graph about in the middle of the article. Just to note one thing, there will be 2-4 cards released on monday not the 1 that is mentioned on this article. The budget end is rumoured to be released mid June, but again these are rumours and that article is based on rumours. At this point there is no point on buying a video card, on monday the cards will be released and the NDA lifted. It is then we'll get confermations on when these cards are coming.
The reason why the budget cards are being delayed are due to high demand from Dell, HP and other manufacturers.

Edit: Missed your post Jack, wait till monday and I'll be able to tell you what your best card for the price will be. Prices should go down a bit by next friday, expecially if ATI's cards perform well.
