Sorry i was thinking of the 5750 benches. It's still +5-10 fps on games for cheaper so if dx11 isn't important to him, it'd make more sense to pay less money for a faster card.

Would this card run CoD:Mw2?

Well, directX 11 i don't really need becuase it shaves off like 20 fps compared to directx 10. So Arctine becuase you have put it like that, it seems more sensible to go for the 4870/90.
I will also have a search on eBay.
Thankyou guys.

Yeah ebay seems a good idea. If you can find an HD 4890 going cheap, happy days. If not a 4870 will be more than good enough, just make sure you don't get a 512mb and get the full 1gb.
really?
I run COD MW on an 8800GT 512 and average 80-90fps all the time, 1680x1050. Everything maxed out apart from AA.
OP - it will be fine.
MW or MW2? DX9 or 10?
It really depends on the resolution you're playing at. 1024/768 will be fine, anything higher you will have to drop AA and lets be honest games look damn ugly without it 
If you're playing at 1680/1050 or above then the card isn't going to cut it!
You would be better buying second hand at that price or as posted above spend a litte more and get a HD4890. if you want to stick to your budget and want a new card then go for the HD4870 which comes with Grid 2, see HERE .

I'd stay away from the 512mb version, their performance really isn't anywhere as good as the gig. I know that from experience, i was disappointed with mine.
Interesting you saying that, I did check Toms GFX chart prior to that post, the difference on their webiste was minimal (2-3 fps at 1920 res) only one game that used the extra ram was Fallout 2.
My previous card was a 8800GTS 512mb (G92) and like your pics performance was fine until I ran through smoke or a nade landed near me or an expolion from a car.....then I had to pick my FPS back up from the floor, anyone can take nice pictures (non action) and show good fps

Like this RPG hitting a car?
Or this grenade going off right in front of me?
only £20 more then £100 for a 5770 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-131-OK
I wouldn't call any of those close but....
We could go on forever, the op wants a graphics card to play MW:2, you say that it plays fine, op buy your self a 8800GT with your £100 budget, I still stand by with the comments I made
