Need a good card for £175

[Eightfold]

I've been considering the Radeon 4850 x2 for Battlefield 3, it's on par with a 6950 for alot cheaper, £150.

I was also thinking the GTX 560 Ti, The radeon 4850 is DX10 though, it'd score more frames but have less detail.
Is there any better?

At current my GT 430 is the equal performance of a 1900X Radeon HD,
I prefer NVidia cards but i also will take Radeon.

Note: VAT kicks in too. PSU requirements i can buy if not above 800W
A good PC is good too, the 20% VAT is okay in the UK, doesnt count

I suggest you get a blastoise, it's a pretty good card!

But really, if you can afford it get the better and later one.

I have an 500W PSU and it runs fine with an 460 GTX Palit Sonic.

Except that my computer seem to have heating problems now and then.

If I were you I'd get the GTX, but consider yourself getting a nice fan(Fans?) too.

I have some nice fans atm, they have never topped 65 with constant use.

It'll give you very similar performance to the 560Ti but it's quite a bit cheaper.
