Personally I would not recommend anything less than:

GTX-460, GTX-560ti 2 gig, ATI 6870, ATI 6950 2 gig.

Of these, in my opinion, the two best options are the GTX-560Ti 2 gig, or the ATI 6950 2 gig.

Both of these cards have 2048 mb of VRAAM, something which the game really hogs, and this will deliver extremely good performance for CoD players at higher resolutions.

The 6950 is in my opinion the slightly better choice, being a little cheaper, ($239 vs $279) and easier to overclock.

There is one other option:

If you have a motherboard which is SLI or Crossfire capable, then you could match up your existing video card with another of the same type. Remember however, that SLI and Crossfire are not yet enabled for the game, but are expected in the near future. Luthier has said Crossfire will be enabled within approx. a month, and SLI will arrive sometime after the next Nvidia driver set is released. So if you can wait...

BUT this is only worthwhile if your existing card is at least (a) DX-10 capable, and (b) sufficiently modern to meet the requirements of the game.

For example, if you already have an ATI 5770, a pair of ATI 5770's would run the game extremely well. And this upgrade would only cost you $139.

I'm not planning to play CoD in high settings, maybe hoping for medium or low mediun
