Need a new card

[Lord Alibaski]

I currently have a Gigabyte 7600GT Silent Heatpipe 11, I don't play games but I wouldn't mind a new card.

The card will be used to do a bit of video encoding now and again. I was looking at the Sapphire HD 6670 "Ultimate Edition"1024MB GDDR5 card.

Is this any improvement on the 7600GT?

I have a budget of about £120 for a new card.

Will need HDMI & DVI connections and would prefer it to be quiet.

Thanks for any advice.

I can only comment on the 560TI (I had one previously) and can only say how good it is. That would be my choice but I am a gamer.

If going nvidia, maybe the non-ti version would suffice?
