Hi peeps not sure what to go for here.
Was playing eve last night and it got a little slow on screen due to a large amount of npcs on screen trying to kill me.
Now I only have a 500 watt psu and need a better card with just 1x6 pin connector but not sure which one to go for because have been out of the loop for a while.
Using a 19" monitor so not too high res.
What would be a good choice 80-130 pound mark please.
I keep looking at the hd6850 atm.
Any advice welcome before I click buy.:D
 
If you can spend a little more, the 7850 2Gb has been on sale for £150 here before. If not, you can go with a 6850 which will still be a big boost over a 4850. Both only need 1 x 6 pin.
 
Well I got

A msi hd 6850 oc 1024mb gddr5 pci-express graphics card.
From the bgrade selection. £69.99 seems a bargin.
Now this with my extra 4 gig of ram should see things a little brisker.:p
 
What's the rest of your specs whilst we're at it? And the screen resolution, not size. No point suggesting something totally overkill ;)
