I need a new GPU after both my 6600gt cards blew. Ive already got 2 Maze 4 blocks hooked up, so I really would like the new GPU to fit them. Ive always been in the Nvidia camp, so id prefer to sit on that side, but im not 100% set on that.

I also could do with a secondary screen to support a 3rd output. (I use 2 monitors+1 tv). This could either be a pci-e card, or just a simple cheap old pci card, as long as it again fits a maze 4 block. Any suggestions guys?
 
What do people recon to;

BFG GeForce 7950 GT OC 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - £164.49 inc VAT

or

BFG GeForce 7900 GS OC 256MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - £119.84

and the following as the secondary card;

BFG 3DFuzion GeForce 7300 LE Turbo Cache 256MB DDR TV-Out/DVI (PCI-Express) - £35.24 inc VAT

Is the 7950 really worth an extra £50 over the 7900? How do either of those cards compare to the 6600Gt im used to?
 
Both of them will walk all over 6600GT. 7900 GS is supposed to be a good overclocker so perhaps that is the one to go for. 7950 GT will be quite a bit faster. What games do you play btw?

Love the Birth of the Android feature btw :D
