[Build Help]Help me pick a video card

So I'm putting together a budget-ish gaming PC. I was thinking about spending around $800, but I got some great black friday deals, so I'm under budget by a good bit and the thought of being able to come in under 700 is very gratifying. I'd like to spend 200-250 on a video card. Below are the parts I've already bought, I have $45 of MIRs to try to get.
