Hey guys
My system needs new graphics. I have the XfX 750SLi motherboard running a Q6600 with 4Gb of RAM. I wanna upgrade my graphics and have the option of either one nice GPU or 2 run in SLi. I don't even wanna hear anyone mention Radeon cards, it's Nvidia all the way for me boys! Any suggestions? Ideally I don't wanna spend any more than £150 in total. Advice please

Wanted graphics card
I play the game for the game's own sake.

i would buy a good single card and use the old one as physx card.
but if i remember the actuell ati cards are really good for a nice price.

Re: Wanted graphics card
sorry Doggy but i have to agree with gav here, at the moment ATI make the best GPU's, i was a Nvidia man all the way till i had to change my GPU in order to get the latest games to run on this old rig, and i was on a £150 budget also. after a bit of reserch i found the best card on the market for £150 is one of these:

and thats the card i am running now, no issues at all and its got a fair bit of grunt as i can run games maxed out ! Whoot !

Re: Wanted graphics card
I upgraded my vid card recently, was waiting to see what nvidia's new fermi cards were like. Went for a radeon 5870 in the end as fermi runs too hot and sucks a hell of a lot of juice. Radeons are definately best value at the moment unless money is no object for you (not just the card cost, but your power bills too)
Re: Wanted graphics card
lol Doggy....your Nvidia enthusiasm just got cornholed =P
Have to agree with everyone else in all seriousness. Best bang for buck is without a doubt in the Radeon range. As much as I like Nvidia too...I just can't warrant spending those kind of prices on such a meager upgrade when looking at the ATI chip alternatives.
