do you like ati or nvidia? if you like nvidia to be safe, get a card like the 6800GT 256mb dd3 that will run all the games on high setting on high resolution and will be able to handle all the upcom,ing coming games for at least 2-3 years, but on the other hand if you like ATI id consider going with the x800 or x850 - a person i know has one, there great
Or you could choose not to get a screen from there, and find a cheaper one elsewhere. www.ebuyer.co.uk are great for PC components I've found - Maybe check them out. Just a quick look on Ebuyer: http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/in...&subcat_uid=352 You can get 15" TFT's for just over £100. I have a Radeon x800 Pro 256Mb and it runs great, but is pretty expensive. For a lot cheaper you can get cards that run the latest games - Half-Life 2, Battlefield 2 etc. Again, have a search around on Ebuyer. G'Luck, -Will
