The GTX 460 is the absolute best bang for the buck.
The $170 768MB 198-bit card

or for a more power for just a little more coin($60 more),
The $230 1GB 256-bit card

either 460 has a lot more power than the 450, for just a little more money, but if you can;t get 30 more dollars,I'd recommend a HD5770, like this...

both cards are good, i would pick the ati if ur boards supports crossfire only because u can cf it later if u need more power. But if u can do sli i would pick the nvidia because fps don't drop when u turn AA on.

Either card is fine.
