Hey guys thinking of getting a new card for christmas and dont want to spend anymore than £200.

What would you recommend???

Was looking at the GTX 470 and the ATI 6850. What would be the best.

Would be running Q8300 and 4G RAM

Cheers

Surely you would rather be looking at the 470 against the 6870? Because in a straight up fight between teh 470 and the 6850 the Nvidia card will come out on top if top end performance bears any relevance.

If you go between the 470 and 6870 it gets closer, but with current deals the 470 would probably be my choice, especially with the mentioned Gigabyte card being a bit of a steal at the moment.
