I’m trying to avoid a bottleneck. Advice needed.

I was wondering what GPU would be suitable for a i7 930 CPU. I don’t want to spend more than I have to on a GPU. I also don’t want the GPU to bottleneck the CPU and vice versa.

Any advice will be appreciated.
 
My LG monitor is 1680 x 1050, but I have it set to 1440x900. Games are X3 Terran Conflict, Silent Hunter 5, All the latest FPS and Transport Tycoon Deluxe.
 
I was thinking of the vapourX 5870 (if it will fit my Antec 900 case). Would that be suitable?
 
Thanks for the advice and suggestions. I've only just bought this monitor and my eyesight being what it is, 1440x900 is as far as I would like to go.

Thanks to you all for the input.
