The best you can afford.

I don't shop UK a lot, but this seems like a good deal for that range:

Gigabyte 7950 3GB AMD Radeon Graphics Card
£249.70 & this item Delivered FREE in the UK with Super Saver Delivery.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gigabyte-7950-Radeon-Graphics-Card/dp/B0071LP5ME/ref=sr_1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1352496523&sr=1-2

If you can find a GTX 670 in your price range that would be better. A GTX 660 would be a little bit less powerful than this if you find one on sale.

Tom's hierarchy article should be helpful if you need context: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107.html

Oops! Missed the "pounds" part. A GTX 670 weighs roughly 2.4 pounds so you pile up 104 of them to come out around 250.

Sorry. It's a Friday.
