    if you can stretch another £60 or so and wait for the 8800gt if it comes out with good results then that should be a card to get. Scan had the 7950gx2 and 7900gtx's for £91 but they are now gone. I can't think of any good retail gfx card for £100 unless you go to ebay. Some sellers have a 7900gtx on ebay. If it were me I'd save that £60 extra and get a 8800gt or a 2900pro.

    You should be able to get a 512mb x1950pro for under 100, which is a great dx9 card.

    damn, I suggest you go for kalniel's suggestion, the x1950pro sapphire was one of the recommended cards I'd have chosen.

    Well point your boss over to some of the 8800GT reviews (it's suppose to be better then a 8800gts)
    And tell the tight ar5e to get his hand in his pocket ;O)

    Re: £100 graphics card ?

    If you can find someone which is selling one then a X1950xt should set you back not much more than £100 last I looked when I got mine they were £110 (2 months back). Only problem will be with availability not sure if anybody stocks them any more but much more powerful than an X1950 pro
