Spec me a Nvidia GPU Please

[kPATm]

Hello. Im looking at upgrading my GPU and as usuall there are just that many around that my head hurts. So can I have your opinions on the best card to spend the £120 on. It must be Nvidia as my HDTV doesnt like ATI for some reason. I really like to have plenty of eye candy in my games and I will be playing on a 24" monitor at 1920x1080. Here are my current specs. Thanks


8800GTX
BeQuite 530w
E8400@4ghz
4GB Corsair

At that price your looking at the 460 although ideally (raw gaming power) I'd say push up to £150 for the 470.

I was thinking of the 460 but there are that many versions available it hard to choose And I dont think my530w PSU could cope with a 470

A stock speed GTX470 draws 232W max according to techPowerUp:

That would leave you aropund 300W left for the rest of your system, and overclocking (CPU and the graphic card).

There arent that many to choose from!

This on budget

This overclocked

If your psu can handle a 470, Id get one of those.

You could always webnote OcUk to ask them what they think.
