Choose any company... I'm sure they ship from Germany to UK.

Note that a X1950 Pro / XT AGP is much much faster. The 2400 and 2600 series are not great performers. Are you REALLY sure you need DX10?

its not for games as i have an x1950 pro for games - its for my mothers machine which i have upgraded and put vista in but it wont recognise her radeon 7000 agp card so i think a cheap dx10 card would do her fine.

Most Germans (in the IT business at least) speak good enough English to understand "I wanna buy xyz, and can you ship it to the UK?".

When you click through on geizhals, look for the company's "impressum". It's their contact page. Dial the telephone number and talk!

e.g. for £40 you can buy the Powercolor HD 2400 from http://www.ble-computer.com/shop/kon...K46ad13bd9d22f

Dont' know about cost of shipping to UK. For shipping within Germany its about £5.

Alternatively, just wait a few weeks until they are available in the UK.

P.S. Where do you live "up-north"? Sheffield or further?

if it isn't for games then is a good buy because you will have nice picture quality and a decent (for its price) performance some small or old games will play and since is for a girl install her the game miss popularity shes gona bake you a birthday cake
