Best sub £100 ati card

[lvad48]

Hi im currently in the process of building a pc and as im more of a console gamer i'd rather like to keep the cost of the graphics card down to an acceptable level (pref <£100). All i'll ever use it for would be for photoshop but my better half wants to be able to play sims 3 and maybe some other games in the future. I'll be running it through a phenom 2 955 on a MSI 790FX-GD70 AMD 790FX.

Thanks in advance

Over £100 :: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-091-PC

Although that one woody79 picked is a good card! In fact just about any of the 4870 near the £100 mark are great for the money and the reviews are good...

Why get a 512 when for the same price (less even if its not on offer) you could get a 1Gb?

For Sims 3, I would spend as far from £100 as I could.

At just over £100, the 4870 is a good choice.

The 4870 is the only choice around £100, unless you can get a 260 for that price.

This is an excellent choice with 1GB DDR 5 too...I paid £200 for a 512MB version ! Go get !
