Hi, I have a budget of £100 and I'm looking to upgrade my GPU so I can play the latest FPS/RTS games on decent settings, without fps issues.


Here's my current computer:


Packard Bell iextreme M5722

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 220

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q8300 @ 2.50GHz

Ram: 6.00 GB dual-channel DDR2@399MHz (6-6-6-18)

Motherboard: Packard Bell EG43M (CPU 1)

PSU: 250w

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Resoultion: 1920x1080@60Hz

Yeah I'll get a new PSU aswell if it's necessary, although I can't really stretch my budget over £120. I've done some quick searching and saw a 500w PSU for £45 but I honestly don't what would be the best value GPU for my pricerange. Any ideas?

I would recommend at least the HD5770 for 1080p;

And it would be a very good idea to stretch your budget slightly for a GTX 460;

The GTX 460 is the way to go if you can afford it. It will make a real difference at your resolution and is the best choice for the money. For reference at high resolutions the HD5770 is approximately 15% faster than the HD5750 on average while the GTX 460 768mb is approximately 40% faster(and can overclock a very large amount on top of that.)
