Best graphics card for £100?

Hi guys,
I've got £100 to spend on a new graphics card. Anyone have any suggesstions on the best one available atm?

Depends what you think is best? Do you need it to run cool? Does it need to be quite?

Personally, for £100 i would get a GTS 250 Dark Knight, they have a great heatsink/fan on that, and you get great performance.

If you are not bothered by high temps or loud fans get a 4870.

gts250 or 4850 with good cooler (eg sapphire VaporX) or 4870 with stock cooler

4870 is your best choice.

I know someone selling one....hold up... I'll get him in here..

it's a 4870 still boxed

yup, box is still sealed and it's a pre-overclocked version with a custom cooler. Looking for £89 in RMSD, let me know if your interested

Gainward GTX 260 216 GC from Scan for £109 free delivery.


40% gain for 10% cost increase over GTS 250


edit: Compared to the 4870 it's quieter, less power hungry, faster and has better drivers.

Also, almost all GTX 260s come with Batman: Arkham Asylum which is effing brilliant.

Way out of date here guys with your reccomendations, can get a 4870 under 100, also, you could wait and look at new ati cards, coming out 10th.

Yea I think I might be better off waiting till next week and see if any of the prices go down a bit.

The HD4870 512mb is around £90 delivered from Ebuyer:

HD 4830 for £44 ! - scroll to the bottom of the page for correct price.

You can still return it under the distance selling act.

I recommend testing it heavily once it arrives and if it is no good return it within 7 days.

THe 4830 is now way near the best card I can get for £100
