Graphics Card Advice Please

[chris5252]

Hey Guys,

Soon I am going to be building a PC. It is my first build so please let me know if there are any issues with the setup etc. I have decided on just about every component apart from the graphics card. Graphics card budget around £60-70. I do not game, but I would like a reasonably good card.

Heres what I have so far. Let me know what you think.:

Intel Core i5 2.66Ghz

Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3R

G-Skill Trident 4GB PC3-16000 2000MHz

Corsair 450W VX Series PSU

Western Digital WD5000AAKS 500GB

Antec 300 Three Hundred Case

2 x Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 800 RPM

Thanks, Chris

HD4650/70 or gforce GT240. Both energy efficient and reasonably good cards. Every thing else looks good.

Thanks for your reply. Would this be ok. http://www.ebuyer.com/product/179657#

Theres just so many different cards. Different makes and 512MB or 1GB

That would be fine. Performance wise it is comparable with 9600GT. Cards in that range do not benefit from more ram than 512mb they are not powerful enough to utilize it.
