I bought an ocuk premade system earlier in the year, and for the most part I can't fault it. However the graphics card has never been quite right (lower performance than I'd expect in certain circumstances) and its just started artifacting, so I'm going to look at sending it back.

However, I realise this isn't the greatest card in the book so am thinking of upgrading anyway. Money isn't really a problem but I don't want to spend massive amounts of money.

I want a card that can handle 1920x1080 dual screen with games on one monitor running all bells and whistles whilst being able to record Fraps to a solid state drive.
 
Sounds good, I shall do some reading. The 580 doesn't look likely due to the extra cost for which I can't see the specs are that much better - usual NVidia trick no? I'm not an Nvidia fanboy, so I'm happy to move to ATI.
 
Ok I think I'm happy with the 570, as my pc is silent so the quiet cooler is a plus. Any particular brand that you can recommend?
