Budget card under £40

[fozzybear]

As title really.

Need a budget card that will only be used for non intensive gaming. eg. Football Manager.

It can be ATI or Nvidia but at £40 or less.

Will be ordering in next few hours so quickish reply appreciated.

if you can stretch to 51 you can grab this b-grade 8800GT

a noob question, what is b grade? Is it 2nd hand?

Well you only get a 14 day warranty. So you may as well think of it as such.

I believe B-grade items are returned items or RMA replacements.

Easily the best you'll get for the money, fantastic deal that.

+1, although that's the nastiest looking 8800GT i've ever seen, still an absolute bargain though.

I'm typing this on a system containing one of those that I bought from OcUk 15 months ago for £140. Still runs all my games though, great card...

I think the cooler is a Zalman though, so decent cards and definitely worth the £50.

Yeah it's probably very good, it's just not too aesthetically pleasing if you get my drift. What with the green pcb and smallish heatsink, it just looks a bit weak, you'll have to forgive me for being too picky Definately worth the money though, like I said it's a cracking price considering the extra power you'd get over anything else in that price range.

Cheers for that.

I ended up getting a PSU and RAM instead. I'll bear it in mind for when I next order in a week or two.

The 8800GT appears to have gone now.

Ah, doesn't matter with the case around it!
