Yeah, the cards you show me are really good, but I think the most I'd spend would probably be £120 max...

The 6600GT will run games anywhere between low and medium. I would get a 6800 Xtreme.

Is the 6800 Xtreme a good card though, will it cope with the new games?
The ASUS one is good, again, but I think it's a bit too expensive maybe? A 512 for that price though, is it good?
