I have little money right now and want to upgrade my gfx card, prolem is i spend so much time looking up the high end gfx cards and keeping up with them i dont know much at all about the lower end models iv got £50 give or take what would you suggest

i was thinking something like the 430 maybe but what about the 200 series sure they dont do dx11 but they stil have power behind them are they worth it

so you know what to go upwards of i have an 8800 gt 1gb, its old and iv had to downclock it to keep it going, it will give in on me sooner or later i mean having to downclock a card isnt a good sign

Great site you posted, dom.

Too bad it doesn't seem to include professional graphics card (such as the ATI Fire Pro or nVidia Quadro). Otherwise, it's really good.

It's completely dynamic and lifts the data off of a number of sites. I can only assume that if certain cards are not shown it is because they aren't sold on those sites or there isn't enough data to define a trend for price/performance.
