Using ebuyer as a guide, what's the best card for no more than £150?
Difficult price range you have.
Your basically looking at: GTX460, HD5850, HD5870, GTX550, HD6850
The HD5870 is the best.
No chance of anything slightly higher?

good question - i am also looking into this atm.
where have you's found HD5870 for £150? I know you can get a HD5850 for £145 now.
Scan are selling an MSI 1GB GTX460 OC for £120 - which is a pretty good deal esp if your on Hexus/AV Forums = Free delivery

wow. what a load of BS. I would have been in a rage. reguardless if it is imported or not. the card is still made by them and if the card is still within warranty, it is their duty to repair it if it is faulty. you got shafted pretty hard.
