What's the best 'budget' graphics card?

(ie. -£100.)

Are the ATI RADEON 9600's good? Especially for FPS's, like Return to Castle Wolfenstien... Nothing amazing, but good for online gaming anyway.

Or are nVidia the best?

Such as?

I'm quite dissapointed by SoFII Gold, Rogue Spear, Red Faction and Half-Life... Not too dissapointed, but dissapointed nevertheless.

Any recommendations for GOOD games? Preferably not sports... I have a PS2 for that, and well... Dunno if I have time for any RPG's.

Thanks :).

Return to Castle Wolfenstein will be an absolute doddle for the 9600XT, my friend.

You should look towards more recent titles.

ATI cards perform better on the whole, much better in some cases. The Nvidia range however have more stable drivers. I would go for a 9600 XT if you want a reasonable budget but a decent card. They are the top end of the word budget though.
