Any suggestions? Also which brand provides the best quality?
£200? You could get a good one for under £50, but
go with either NVidea or AMD
Hardly. Under £50 for a good graphics card does not happen.Quote:

I will take a look for you.
My apologies for getting the wrong capitals! sheesh
and you can! Not the top end, but enough for 70% of games. I think mine was under 50 and it works fine
Certainly has good reviews.. http://www.ebuyer.com/253958-gigabyte-gtx-560ti-oc-1gb-gddr5-dual-dvi-mini-hdmi-out-pci-e-gv-n560oc-1gi

You cannot get a decent graphics card for under £50 for decent gaming.Quote:

Maybe not high-quality gaming, but gaming nonetheless
Well yeah but you can get gaming on a Play Station 1.Quote:

Yeah if you don't want to play the latest games, sure you go and spend £50 or less on some crappy GFX card.Quote:

A decent graphics card has never been sub £50 lol.Quote:

Mine seems fine, and I have a Intel(R) HD Graphics
Aren't those like integrated or somethingQuote:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...14&subcat=1341 - faster core speed
http://www.ebuyer.com/253958-gigabyt...-gv-n560oc-1gi - one I posted, same core speed as above.
The last two are Overclocked I think, but pretty much the same cards.
But the bottom 2 would be the better choice?Quote:

I assume you mean a plug in a wall? You'd get a lovely loud bang :P Loads of graphics card come with an adaptor to plug it into a 4-pin connector so you maybe able to use that if you do not have a spare 6-pin floating around in your case. If not a new PSU, which someone maybe able to help you out with :)Quote:

There is literally nothing coming out of there which is unusedQuote:
