Okely dokely.
The last time I'll be harassing you kind folks about what kind of Gfx card to get.

The limit'll probably be around 150 quiddish area, so little above that is fine.

Your help is muchly appreciated.
Danke.

I've got a Connect3D 9600PRO - it's excellent value for money.

Azul = 9600PRO.

They perform best and overclock more than others. Even if you don't overclock it means it's more stable.

I would also advise against buying a graphics card from Ebuyer, their selection is a little poor. Why do you specifically recommend Connect3D above Powercolor and Sapphire?

No I wouldn't buy a graphics card from Ebuyer.

When you choose a manufacturer, get Connect3D if you can.

I'd go with overclockers.

While I admit I don't know exactly what this involves, the word 'chance' seems to dominate that sentence. It's certainly something to think about though.

Ah, but the 9800 SE has a chance of being softmodded to a 9800 Pro for a fraction of the cost.

Meanwhile on planet Earth...

With the amount you have to spend you'll be able to get a 9600XT or a passively cooled (silent) 9600 Pro. Don't get a 9800SE, the 9600 Pro is quicker.
