Waht seondhand graphics cards are worth looking at for around £75, i say secondhand because I assume i can get the best performance by doing this. Upto yet the 6800gt OC has been recommened which can be had for £88 new, Is this my best otption?

If you can get a 7600 GT for your budget that's a really great card. 12 pipes versus the 16 of the 6800 GT, but the much higher core/clock speeds make the 7600 GT a quicker card overall according to this review-

They start at £117 new on OcUK, most of them around £130. Seen them brand new on everyones favourite auction site for dead on your budget (+ delivery) which doesn't make sense, I don't understand how they can be that cheap new. If I were buying one I'd contact the sellers and check the clock/memory speeds are right before buying and check they are definitely the GT. There may be a range of 7600 GTs over a wide buget with varying clock/memory speeds or something like that. If they are for real though, that's an awesome deal.
