Spec me a Graphics Card!

[dan394]

Thanks to everyone on this site for their help! I'm wanting a graphics card for a budget system and only have around £40 - £50 to spend on it, but want something decent for the money (if I can haha!) I've been looking at Radeon 5570 and 6570, but aren't sure which to go for, or if NVidia have any better offerings? (I don't know much about their cards), or if I should get something completely different?

Thanks

What CPU and PSU do you have? What games will you be playing?

Refurn 9800GT: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-171-OK&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=2077

However I would consider a second hand card if you want something powerful to play games. Not sure what you can grab at that price point though.

Hi, thanks everyone. Wouldn't really be looking to play any demanding games, just light gaming now and again and HD video. Don't really want to go down the second hand route, would prefer new.
Any other suggestions?

Thanks

If that's the case, then I wouldn't go any lower than the 9800GT I specced. You won't get a card with similiar/better performance than that at that price point.

I grabbed a 5670 for £40 the other week and stuck it in my second system, it plays pretty much everything, will even do skyrim on high easy.
