Need a PCI-E Card

[ACPCUP]

I am looking for a PCI-e Card for £100 max!! No more. What is the best i can get for that amount? Ta

I'd go with an X800 GTO whichever fits into your budget but that probably means the Powercolor 128mb version, if you could stretch to £130 then you could pick the X800 GTO16.

I'd also go for an X800GTO as these are better than the simarly priced 6600GTs

I know it's £5 over but the 256MB DDR3 X800GTO (@£105) is well worth the extra over the DDR1 128MB version

How much faster is the X850 by powercolor than the X800GTO? theres only about £35 difference, and the X850 has 16 pipes and runs higher clocks at stock.

Its probably worth the extra in my book, aren't the GTOs using X800XL cores now instead of X850s?

Well I suppose its better if they've got the R480 core as opposed to the R420, so in speed terms the 850 is gonna be better. I swear when I looked earlier this morning they were selling for about £130, now they're at £150, what gives?

What about Nvidia cards? How about this one:

Leadtek Winfast 6800 LE 256mb

That's a little slower than the 6600GT at stock. If it's AGP it can be unlocked making it a good purchase but I don't know if the PCI-E cards can be unlocked. The 6800 also seems to be slower on PCI-E than AGP
