sorry my bad, a 6870 series card
A single non-sourced screenshot (That was leaked with no actual proof beyond a random screenshot) does not a claim make. We don't know the price either.
 
My advice: keep the old GPU and wait until benchmark tests with Civ5 have been made. Often first benchmarks appear even before release day and one week later we swim in numbers. Ideally tests on the resolution you use and with the quality settings you want. Then decide which product offers the best value for your needs (e.g. number of additional Civ5-FPS compared to your current 8800GT per dollar spent).

Where does one find benchmarks for specific games? I know Tom's Hardware, but don't they tend to just do benchmarks on FPS kinda games? And do they do a best card for a certain game and CPU chart?
