for about 100 bucks your best option would be a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150467

I think you may want to consider a 5750 for 130 bucks - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102859

or a 5770 for about 150 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150447

these would offer a substantial performance performance boost over the 5670

these are your best options for a mid range graphics upgrade and i really like my 5770 from xfx which is that last one - super easy to overclock to 1ghz with msi afterburner

also you could go with a 4000 series card which gets you a little more power for your money, but will not support DX11.
A good one to get would be a 4850 like this one - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150482
