    I'd say the refurb 9700pro is a good option for £49inc vat.

    Faster than a 6200 and about equal to a 6600non-gt.

    Though 6200's have the option of softmodding to 8pipes, if you want to take that risk.

    Go to Retek pay £49.94 for a 9700pro. Sit back laughing and enjoy. I paid £160 for mine 21 months ago - still using it for latest games.

    Yeah the 9700Pro looks very nice at that price, although for £10 more you could get a second hand 9800Pro, which are great cards for the money. Depends if you want a warrenty I guess.

    As for PCX, I was unaware it's in the model name. I was under the impression that PCX is something completely different, used in servers. I tend to always say PCI-E anyways, so people get what I'm saying right away.
