My friend would like a new graphics card for the game Skyrim coming out. He has a budget of £100 but he would like to spend as little as he can. The rest of his computer is pretty decent though. What would you guys recommend?
 
I believe skyrim is direct x 9 only, so shouldnt be too taxing on the GPU, you might get a 6870 on here for around that price
 
£100 is a little too cheap to get anything decent and new.

At £100 your looking at a 6850.

But for £30 more he could get a 6870 or 560.

I would push for something like this

He could get a 460 or a 560

I would say its worth getting any of those 3, over the more in budget 6850, as the little extra you pay, will ddeliver better performance and give the gpu more life time.

If you went second hand, he could get a 5850 or something similar.
