Jaffa Posted January 25, 2011 Content Count: 4263 Joined: 09/18/07 Status: Offline Share Posted January 25, 2011 I've recently come to a decison to buy a new card. My main one burnt out over the summer, and due to lack of funds, I picked up a cheap nvidia 9400 gt. I'm not exactly knowledgeable about graphics cards, but was wondering if anyone could suggest a decent card to get (pref. nvidia), i don't want to spend more then £100, but also don't want to have to worry about replacing/upgrading again for a while.

Have a look around on google, see if you can find any specifications or requirements for the card you are looking for.
