Current 3-4 years old spec - Core2duo 1.6ghz, DS3 mobo, 8800 GTS 512mb, 4 gig DDR2 geil ram.

My GFX card has recently decided to die. So what better time to upgrade.

I wouldn't be as reluctant as I am to upgrade, but I have my car insurance/tax/service coming up in March so need to save some money.

My options are to buy a cheap pci-e gfx card to tide me over, upgrade pretty much completely keeping my case and psu, to get a premade system from OC, or get a laptop.

My primary uses if I'm honest, is web browsing, photoshop and running dual monitors for watching movies etc. I'm looking to spend no more than £400-500.

Any advice on what the best route would be?

Cheers!
