    For £60, I would say a plain 9600: http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?sku=307932&cks=PRL

    A better bet for the price would probably be a 9600 Pro (slightly more, but worth it): http://www.lowestonweb.com/Products/...1-A1761A8F9A13

    However, a plain 6600 would be a better option if you could stretch to it: http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?sku=307923&cks=PRL

    Try and get a 2nd hand Ti4200 e.t.c, something along those lines would be good for your budget.

    I'm thinking of selling mine if you're interested. PM me.

    Damn good cards. Only upgrading as it can't support my 2 monitors at the same resolutions.

    £60 is secondhand 9700 Pro money...maybe a few quid more will get you a 9800 Pro. Thats where my cash would be going...

    yeah, i'd go secondhand 9700pro, but not from retek unless your'e game, a friend's gone through 2 in the last month! should be around £60 and a great card, 9800pro will be more like £80-90, but again worth it

    How about a Nvidia GF6200, softmodded to a 6600, if you can find one that will do it.

    I see somebody snapped up the 6600gt for £68 though. I would have got it myself for my new system if i had the money.
