Hi

I'm looking for some advise on a graphics card. As i recently built myself a new system the old AMD Dual Core was donated to a friend in order to get him online for gaming. Mainly stuff like L4D,COD4 and TF2 etc. As I kept my own graphics card he needs to buy that part himself so i am looking for some advice for him.

The games he will be playing are listed above, he will be gaming at 1280 x 1024 and has a budget of around £60.

I was thinking

but thought i'd see if anyone could suggest anything better suited to his needs?

Cheers

The second hand market would throw up some much better deals if he's willing to risk it, lots of decent 8800 series cards around at the moment due to people upgrading.

+1 if he has the PCI-E connectors for a 8800 it would be the best performance boost or let him buy yours and upgrade your own.

now there is a good idea! Been thinking about upgrading, seeing the good price on the XFX 4890's atm. May have to have a quick word with him :)
