Hey

I'm planning on buying a new graphics card, I'm thinking of getting the 9800GT (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148491). Or can you recommend some others near that price? NVIDIA only please.

Thanks,
Chris

I know you said Nvidia, but this blows the GTX a million miles. http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/Club+3D+ATI+Radeon+HD+4870+512MB+PCI-E+?productId=35237

Thanks for the recommendation but I just don't like ATi for some strange reason.

Plus it has to be Ebuyer only as I have been given a free next day delivery treat.

Okay, hopefully I am going to get the XFX GTS250 512MB DDR3 Dual DVI HDCP HDTV out PhysX and Cuda ready PCI-E Graphics Card. Sounds better with the full name lol.

Also I will have to get another PSU as I have a 450W and I'm going to need a 550W so I was thinking: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132563 since corsair are the best in PSUs

Get a modular PSu, much easier to manage cables.

No BSOD, never have had one (from NVIDIA). I have the new gfx card in my pc and it's given me 5.9 on windows rating and going to try games in a sec

Fixed long ago and a temporary fix was to downgrade one driver version.

If anything ATi drivers are the worst.
