My aged BFG 8800 GTS gave up on life today, I've temporarily replaced it with a geforce 210. I'd like some suggestions of what I should be ordering from OcUKs current stock to replace it with permanently. I'd like to spend around £250 max.

Currently running an e6600 overclocked to 3ghz, 4gb pc6400 ddr2, on an asus pb5 deluxe mobo.
I know the rest of my hardware will probably be a bottleneck at the mo, but I'd like to get a card that will be decent value and last me through a mobo/cpu/ram upgrade later on.

Thanks !
 
E6600 @ 3gig will be sufficent to drive the 5850 - you'd see a bit more out of it with a faster CPU but you'd be getting most of teh benefits.
