    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Top little card those. I'm much impressed with the one I put in the Step-sons machine.
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Re: AMD Reduces 6850 price.

    Is a 6870 worth the extra money?

    The 6870 seems to be 15 -20% faster than the 6850 so now you have to make your mind up if thats worth the extra money but I would say yes it is.

    I was looking to get a 6870, i think it's worth the money over the 6850. It does definitely depend on how much gaming you do though. I did manage to find a GTX560 Ti for £155. What an absolute bargain. I think scouring the internet definitely works a lot of the time. I was going to get a 6870 at first but then i found the 560Ti
