Second hand card for Fallout 3?

[RoboCod]

Hi,

I need to find a good but cheap upgrade to run Fallout 3. I read the 9600 GT handled the game quite well? Is £60 a fair price 2nd hand? Could you recommend a better alternative for that price?

Ta very much

8800 ultra can be had for £80 second hand if you're lucky

I guess I should clarify, £60 is top end of the budget

second hand 8800gt around £50

£60 seems expensive for a used 9600GT. For that id expect an 8800GTS 640, 8800GT, possibly an 8800GTX if youre lucky

3870?

yep it plays it fine at 1650x1080 the 8800 gts 640 in sig

I picked up a second hand 8800GTX for £70 for this exact purpose.

I'm playing Fallout at 1680x1050 with 4aa and settings at High, or something similar. Runs lovely.

8800gt has been going between 55 and 65 on MM.
3870 has been going for about the same.
