Graphics Card recommendation please - £200-£250 budget

[popej]

I have a similar question if someone doesn't mind helping.

I'm considering the same card (the one linked by #2), I'm going from a 4850 however. It's starting to chug a bit and with my system* its definitely a bottleneck.

I have a similar budget, is the upgrade worth it?

Ta.

Yes it will be worth the upgrade.

if there was an all singing, all dancing racing sim to be released next week, then I could quite easily want to play that across 2 1920x1200 monitors

Hey Steve,

what screen res would that be then? . . . 3840x1200 or?

Give or take, yes. It doesn't go full-screen in that mode, so it's actually a window dragged large across both monitors, so if you take a handful of pixels off the width for the window border, and a bunch more off the height for the window's title bar, and the task bar, then you are pretty much there.

Live for Speed seems to have good multi-monitor support. You can adjust the angle of the second monitor relative to the first, and so on.

Cheers,

Steve.
