Recommend me a Video Card

[DaBeeeenster]

Right then. Just updgraded my machine and looking for a new video card. Wanting to spend ~120 quid, probably on a 9800 pro. Can anyone recommend any vendors with good quality cards available atm? Possibly ones that can flash upgrade with a decent heat sink?

Ta.

Retail, 256 bit, 128MB ATI built radeon 9800pro. That should flash with a 256mb bios- you then really would have an xt. Pick up an arctic cooler rev1, 2 or 3 doesnt matter which either from scan or at pc world (£10) if you have one locally.

Its worth buying the card and new cooler sepeartely. The only compnay i know that fits the arctic cooler as standard is the HIS excalibur. http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=115944 extra cash but it doest overclock better really.

Anyone know if this would be flashable:

If it has samsung 2.8 memory then most likely yes. Kustom will be able to tell you.

Just realised that it is out of stock

Might go for the scan card along with a Tagan PSU - this one good?

According to the reviews on the site the cards have R360 cores and Hynix 2.8ns memory, so they should be flashable.
