Looking to upgrade from a 4850

Hi all,

Recently found myself with a lot of free time on my hands so have got back into gaming again. Mainly been playing Skyrim and New Vegas at the moment but I feel my graphics card now warrants an upgrade as I'm not getting the performance I would like.

My current system specs are :

OCZ ZT 550w PSU
ASRock N68S Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition @ 3.4GHz
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB)
HIS HD 4850 IceQ 4 TurboX 512MB

Not got a huge budget, I am looking to spend about 130 ideally, but could stretch to 150 if there was a clear winner at this price range.

What would be your recommendations?

Cheers:cool:

Cool, I had a feeling the 7850 would be a good shout. I've heard these overclock well. Do you reckon the extra £30 for the 2GB MSI card is worth it over the 1GB MSI card?

Yes, though you'd want at least 1680x1050 res or above to make it worthwhile.
