im sorry this is over budget but this is a cracking deal if u can squeeze that budget or maybe sell the old 5850 on ebay?

You can get a GTX 960 for around that price. You'd be better off with a 4GB model, but it would be at or over £150.

This R9 380 is on special offer at £150, but I don't know how it compares to the 960.

And yes, that 390 is an amazing deal if you can find the budget for it!

4GB VRAM definitely recommended.

Wait for Black Friday sales, and snipe a GTX960 / R9 380, or something.
