Best GFX on a £125 budget

[eldren]

Right, I'm not looking for actual stores and such selling exact models - I'm more looking for a guide as to which cards offer the best performance for this price region.

Now, I'd prefer to go the ATI route - nVidia's cheating with their drivers has made me wary of their cards. That, and with Radeon cards, one brand is usaully as good as another, whereas nVidia's reference cards seem to be more complex than manufacturers prefer (8 layer PCB), leading them to change the product more drastically. Or, at least, that's what I've read.

I'm fully willing to overclock, otherwise anything goes.

PS: Nice how my lovely £ gets mangled.

The HIS Radeon 9600pro - £125 from: http://www.kl1128.fsnet.co.uk/vga.htm

I think most of these cards overclock very well and its the best you will get for the budget.

Yup the 9600 Pro would be the best card for around £125.

stretch to about £140 I think it is, head to www.komplett.co.uk and buy the Sapphire R9600Pro Fireblade edition. It's higher clocked and slightly faster than the standard 9600Pro.

If you can't stretch to that much, the standard 9600Pro is still an excellent card.
