If i were to get a nVidia card, what card should I get, and for how much would it be??
That depends on what you want. Here is a good list that describes the power of the cards in basic terms...

I have the GeForce GTX 460 and it runs every game I have come across on max settings (except Crysis )
Realistically speaking you would be fine with any card beyond the GT 220 I suppose for most games on decent settings. I would recommend spending at least 100 dollars, closer to 150 or 200 for a decent card. Also, you can get great used cards on eBay and pay much less for them!
So a nVidia GTX 460 (or something like it) would be able to run Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Call of Duty: World at War and Amnesia (Those are my most demanding games)? I dont really know much about nVidia and whats good and whats not.
I've come to learn to not fear the living, nor the dead... But the monsters that hide in closets.
