    Yep, that's why I went for the GTO - although that's not in stock. Scan DO have an X1600 Pro that might do, at about &#163;90 in stock? Does it really HAVE to be ATI? &#163;100 or so could get you a very decent vanilla 6800.

    the X850XT is far superior to either the X1600XT or the X1600 Pro

    but for &#163;100 I dont suppose you can do better, you might be able to get a x1600pro
