Well, after a few years out of the scene, and having a broken Mach II doesn't help, but hey, things are looking up... Sending the Mach to Gray Mole for repair, and hoping to get some upgrading / OC & Crunching done for XS... :D

So, Specs are in my sig, all OE cooled, but OC'd a little...

I could really do with upgrading my GFX card - BIG TIME. Although the quality of what i have at the moment is good for my web / gfx design, just doesn't cut it for the latest games (like NFSU-Most wanted to name one)

I don't do MUCH gaming, as i have PS2 / Xbox and what not in the house and a CarPC / PS2 in the Car - HOWEVER, that's due to having an ok system, but a rubbish GFX card...

Looking to spend approx £100-150, would like VIVO, Dual DVI, something with plenty of memory, can play any game on the market today, and in a couple of years time, etc.

Oh, needs to be PCI-E

Any recomendations?

Nice to be BACK :woot:

Oh... AND...

What kind of speeds am i likley to see with the Opty If / When the Mach II is repaired? I can remember hitting 2.6 on stock air, but don't think it was stable, due to heat & memory...

For that money X1950 Pro would be best choice.

Hmm...I just checked that 150 pounds would be like 223 euros and here in Finland X1950 Pro is 200 euros so I assumed it's about the same in England :rolleyes: Well you could buy it from Germany and it's probably even cheaper there.
