GPU Help

I have a budget of £100 for a graphics card for my build.

Question is what to get ? I was thinking ASUS HD6850?

Any other ideas?

Cheers

 

[DanUre]

Yeah thats what I thought, cheers for the help buddy, ill have a good look at both.

I've not really considered 2nd hand, could I get something a lot better if I bought used ?

Another question, after reading more the Asus takes 2 6pin power connectors. Now i havnt built the system yet (Still in planning phase) so is there anything I need to consider regarding the motherboard or anything else for that matter, to make sure its all compatible?

Good to hear!
- 2500k but waiting for ivybridge to see what price is like
- As far as the mobo goes i'm not really sure but the budget is around £80 - 90 (Possibly Gigabyte Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68, which is £85)
- Corsair Builder Series 500w
- ASUS HD 6850
- OCZ Agility 3 60gb SSD
- All inside either the Shinobi or Carbide 300R

Problem i'm having is choosing what to spend on each component, its my 1st build and i'm on quite a strict budget, all in about £750, but that's including literally everything!

 

[DanUre]

Yeah, undecided yet though, anything with over 500gb will do

Very similar to what i had in mind, luckily the SSD is a present for my brother so that's not included.

Also, i love that case but it doesn't have USB 3.0 ports on the front panel... not that I have any USB 3 compatible stuff but do like the option ha!

I didn't realise shipping would be so cheap! Is that just if you buy all at once?

Cheers for all the help!
