Cheap but good GFX Card.

[PaulMacC]

I'm looking to play some CoD4 on PC. I have a mediocre GFX card but I was looking for a good one for the cheapest price possible. Any ideas?

[N!ck]

How cheap is cheap? £50? £100?

And do you have a PSU that can handle it?

[Markeh]

Under £100 (ok, £102 if we're getting technical), I'd go for http://www.ebuyer.com/product/175722

Under £70, I'd go for http://www.ebuyer.com/product/190138

Under £50, I'd go for http://www.ebuyer.com/product/191529

All up to date cards, will serve well with CoD I think.

I need recommendations from you PC buffs out there. Here are my PC specs:
OS - Windows Vista Home Premium
Language - English
System Manufacturer - Dell Inc
System Model - Studio 540
Processor - Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q8200 @ 2.33Ghz (4 CPU's)
Memory - 3292MB (I'm on a 32-bit so maximum is 4GB)
Display Device - Intel G45/G43 Express Chipset
Total Approx Memory - 1422MB

I'm assuming my motherboard + graphics card are combined so I'm willing to spend about £150-200 on getting another motherboard + decent graphics card is this is this case.
Thanks for your help.

You don't need a new motherboard AFAIK

You don't need a new motherboard AFAIK

I have a 360W.
I'm upgrading to this graphics card here.
I'll need a better PSU for this to work so I'm upgrading to this here.
Would this work, plus does anyone know a UK retailer for these items?

I can't find the card you wanted on eBuyer, and Scan are currently awaiting an ETA. http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/896MB...-MHz-216-Cores is the Scan link.

PSU, on the other hand, this would be your best bet: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/124926 I think.

Paul, I'd go with an ATI card, due to the fact you can get DirectX 11, and they are often cheaper for better quality cards. I'd recommend this card: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/1GB-S...splay-PortHDMI but make sure it'll fit in your PC case.

it's extremeley hard to get hold of a GTX 260 in the UK at the moment - i'd either wait till they bring their alternative out, or go Ati (summit like a 4870)

You're willing to spend £150-£200 just to play CoD?

Seriously... don't buy a GFX card unless your going to buy a good amount of games, not just CoD. I suggest you get Sims 3 as well.

[PaulMacC]

I get paid to play cod so why not.
