Best card for £120?

[habbyster]

I want to upgrade from my HD 5670, max budget = £120

That's an awkward budget, there is the Gigabyte HD 7770 OC 1024MB GDDR5 for £100

Its about a 30% upgrade from a 5670.

Or how about this for £150 and sell the games? Sapphire HD 7850 1024MB GDDR5
That's a huge jump from the 5670.

Second hand GTX 570 or 6970.

If you look I just now found a 7850 for £100. Sorry, but I can't give out links.

I bought a 7850 from Overclockers for £119 last week.
I'm sure it won't be long before they do a deal like that again.

I would say save up a tiny bit more and get a 2gb 7850. Great cards, good OC'ing potential and worth the extra money. Can be had for £150

What's the spec for the rest of your system?

A 7850 won't do much good, if you put it onto some aged dual-core system.

7850 imo, otherwise wait till you can afford it.

Why? A 7850 is just as good as a 570 and it actually comes with warranty.

I just looked on this site and you can't get a 7850 for £120. Perhaps you can elsewhere though, but then you will be stuck with 1gb which is to little these days. If £120 is his top limit I think a 6970 would be better.

After selling the games that came with the 7850 mine cost £126. Worth factoring that in if it helps your budget.
