For those res's you don't need to spend £300, save yourself a tonne or more and go for an ATI 5850 or maybe an Nvidia GTX480.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but since you've got a suitable motherboard and PSU already going Crossfire or SLI would make sense. £300 will get you a pair of pre-overclocked Radeon 6850s (like these) and there's no single card for that price that offers anything like the same performance.
 
Thats fair enough, in my opnion you dont need to spend that much

480 Slightly better performance compared to the 6950 (flashed) but runs hotter

6950 (flashed) runs cooler, less power and slightly less performance but not by much.

Depends what you are looking for in a card, but if you buy any of these 2 cards you wont be disappointed :) plus you will save some money! :D
