Right, it is time for me to do a new build as my nforce2 board is struggling.

Currently have a 6800LE with all pipelines opened.

What card could I replace it with around the £100 mark?

Not sure if PCI-e is better than AGP tho :S

Not been keeping up to date too much.

I am not at all worried about unlocking pipes and flashing firmware either so best I can get with all unlocks and flashes :)


So if u fellas could recommend me a card that is much better than my current one for price I want that would be good.

Thanks for helping.
 
If you are buying a whole new PC then PCI-E makes sense to go for however a 6800le fully unlocked is still a reasonably decent card and you won't get anything massively superior for £100.

The best I could suggest at that price is probably an X800XL. If you are willing to stretch to nearer £200 then you could get a massive boost for a new PC.
 
As semi-prowaster says, you're far better sticking with your unlocked 6800LE until you can save enough for a better card in the £170-£200 mark.

A 7600GT at £140 would give you a nice boost, but an x1800xt 256mb at £175 is where you start to see some reall gains :)
 
You would get some gains going to an unlocked x800gto or and overclocked x800xl.

But as said above you need to stretch much closer to £200 before you get any gains you'd notice over your current card.
