    Calling all computer nerds!!

    Does anyone know of a moderate/good gaming graphics card for less than £100. I'm in the process of building myself a new gaming computer but I'm not exactly rollin' in it. I have everything else I need: AMD quad core, 16GB RAM, 550W PS and a big ol' case with lots of fans for keepin' it cool so the only thing I'm missin' is my graphics.
    Thanks in advance!

    You can get a Nvidia GeForce GTS 450 1GB or an ATI Radeon HD6670 1GB. These a based on a currency conversion that I did so they may be slightly more expensive or inexpensive depending on which supplier you get it from.

    EDIT: I do ask though, why are you looking for such a mediocre GFX Card, You have fairly good system on your hands, Cash limitations?

    Thanks, I could pick up the Asus model of the HD6670 for about £50! Which would do great but in that case as it's only 50 I might be able to get something a little better instead? and yeah it's the cash flow (or the lack of it) that's causing the problems. Difficult to find a job that pays more then minimum wage (£4.50/hour) where I come from.

    That minimum wage is horrid! That's 6.80 and hour here which is close to illegal!

    14 and 9 Months is the legal working age and $5 is the least amount you can pay in Aus as an hourly wage.

    Well as I'm 16 (17 in less then month) the minimum wage for the ages of 16-17 in the uk are £3.68/hour so I guess I could be worse off but I should be getting a new job today so hopefully that will pay a bit better!

    On topic:
    I'm not as familiar with nVidia as Radeon and I was wondering which are the good manufactures out of Palit, Gainward, Zotac and Sparkle?

    What are you talking about they're in Australia, so they are referring to Australia's minimum wage.
    Sigs are gay.
    BUT SO ARE THESE GUYS...
