    Best AGP for £250????

    Hi,
    I've moved from one thread to another - I started here: http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.php?t=35268
    But now I've decided a new card is the way to go rather than a new board and CPU.
    SO, what is the best card I can get for around £250??
    It needs to work on AGP 4X - does 8x work backwards??
    Was looking at a 6800GT - but these are slightly out of my budget.....
    there are so many cards!!!!
    Are Gainward still good?? - my old Gainward Ti4200 is still going well so thinking of getting another Gainward made maybe....?
    Any suggestions guys?
    Cheers in adv.

    Calm it david! He also wanted to know about the backwards compatability of the cards, so its only fair. Also, he is new! So love and hugs all round peeps.
