Graphics card ~£150?

[Tunney]

I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card from an ATi x1950 Pro to something a bit more modern. I've set a strict budget of £150.

Looking around, it seems like an ATi HD 4850 1GB would fit the bill perfectly at around £140-145.

Do the experts on here agree?

4850 would be my advice, yes.

4870's can be had for very close to that price. Unless you game at 1920x1200 or over, a 4870 with 512mb will beat a 4850 with 1gb.

Another vote for the 4870 if you can find 1 @ a good price

What resolution do you game at?

Under 1920x1200 and you'll be fine with a 4850 512mb
