Best Graphics Card To Go With?

[InfernoUk]

Hey, ive been out of the market for a while since building my last pc, looking to upgrade between now and easter as im buying a new pc in small parts every few weeks, i wondered what is the best graphics card to go for now or will be the best to go for between now and easter. I currently use a gtx 260 and am looking for upgrades, note i do not want to spend more than around £200 so if there are any really good cards above that i think they will be out of my budget, thanks for your help

Stick with your 260 until the ATi 5850s come back to £200

This is your best move, the 5850 is a nice upgrade to your 260

forgot to add it was 200 ex VAT if that opens up any more options or is that card still the best? and is there a best brand of that card as i only have ever have BFG Nvidia cards

Still a 5850, the 5870 is over budget.

are there no new cards out between now and easter? or is that not predicatable? sorry for all the questions just i dont want a new one to come out right after buying one

ati are supposedly releasing their 54xx 55xx 56xx series around those times, maybe wait a little and see what happens with those

These are all due first week of the new year. As to 5850 pricing there will be no price movement within the next month allocation will still be really tight.
