Decent(ish) card for £60

[celliott]

My mate wants a new card for a cheap Pentium D system he got on eBay. Looking for something £60 or under so was thinking about an ATI X1600 or nVidia 7600GT.

Ive had him look at his PSU and the 12v Rail is 19.5A so that seems ok. But its a cheap brand 'Advant' and is only 350W. Do you think it will be ok for these cards?

Chris.

I don't know about the ATI card but the 7600GT is by no means greedy so that should be fine.

7600gt should do the trick, its much faster than the x1600.
It is actually compared against the x1800gto which needs external power, the 7600gt is a very cool, low power chip.

Another vote for 7600 GT - high speed, low power (see here)
