Graphics, recommendations?

[leetkyle]

Going to be spending around £100-£140 ultra-max on some graphics, as I'll be waiting for the ATI R600 (drooling already)

Any recommendations? Feel free to list a few over the price as I can get 'em from eBay.

Not getting the X1900GT as reviews say it is loud, locked pipes and generally not worth the money.

Bit of an ATI fanboy, been looking at the X1800XT 256MB Edition as the 512 doesn't give much performance under the resolutions of 1600x1200.

i would go for the x1800 xt...it's a very very very VERY good card

around 500

Huh?

100 pounds is 190 USD roughly and 140 pounds a bit more than 260 USD

Look into the X1800 GTO's. There not too bad, the one I got cost me around £140 and this gives me a good 100+ fps in CS:S.

For about $285 you can get the x1900xt.
