GTX260. Cheap and powerful, and a worthy upgrade from a g92 8800GTS.

Going ATI yields good results too, like the 1GB 4890.

+1 on the GTX260, just make sure you get the 55nm version! The old 65nm/192shader units are cheaper but can't touch the newer GPU (even the old 512MB HD4870 beats it sometimes)
