Upgrade from 4850

[DEL 707]

I'm planning on building myself a new machine.
At the moment I've got a 4850 (512mb) card and I'm a bit out of touch with the whole graphics card market, well the who PC building thing altogether really

Is there a good upgrade I can pick up for about £150?

i would think the gtx460/465 would be a decent upgrade for around £160.plus you'll get a free copy of mafia2

Pay a bit more and a 460 1GB will be a big upgrade from the 4850, don't touch the 465 unless you get it for £150 or less.

460 is the only sensible option for that price.

I would skip this generation. Wish I had.

I'm looking at the 460 1gb cards, but there's about 3 different options?
Is there any major difference between all of them? I tempted to go for the Asus card just because it's a brand I know.

None - just different goodies on offer. Some use different coolers too (you will see in the pictures). Some people say some brands use quiter fan bearings too, but who knows. Basically no.

Go for the Asus, 3 year warranty and decent cooler.
