I am about to upgrade my PC, which would be the best graphics card for around £120-£150?

Whatever you get, I'd also get another 512M RAM. Also, we can't recommend anything until you tell us if you have an AGP or PCI-3 motherboard.

Converting that to US dollars would probably get you a faster answer.

overclockers.co.uk and scan.co.uk are the cheapest I know of in the U.K

If its AGP you are after, My friend just bought this one it plays all the latest games with ease.£117.50 delivered to your door.

They have 256mb version for £40 more but the increase in perfomance is around 0.08% and is not worth it.

This is the equivilent in pci-e

what power supply are you using?.You will need a good power supply if you are on the AGP system.

As the above post says think about adding another 512 of ram as well,about the £30 mark these days..

Good luck
