New GFX Card

[Darthshearer]

I am planning on getting a new GFX in Jan time. I currnetly have an ATI Asus Radeon 9200 and have had problems with the drovers when updates come out. Prior to me getting that I have a nVidia and had hardley any problems.

What do peeps recommend. Although I find ATI have a good H/W yet shite S/W for it.

Please help im poorley

Budget?

Budget?

Ahhh knew I had missed something. I think £150 is OK?

Have a look in the overclockers "This week only" section. Quite a lot of cards on offer there within your budget. You should be able to get a nice 9800 or 6800 whichever flavour you prefer

Go to www.microdirect.co.uk and check out their special offers section, some decent buys most days of the week

Nvidia 6600GT? Or try and stretch to the 6800GT if you can.

You would be VERY lucky to find a 6800GT for £150 even second hand.

OK thanks for your help guys

I got the gainward one for 330 so i'd be suprised if you even got one for 200 quid!

I recently bought myself a Galaxy GeForce 6600GT (www.scan.co.uk) and have been very, very impressed with it. A great card for the money (£150).

It's pretty quiet too which is a bonus.

Bit of a bargain, it won't stay in stock for long.
