Uh, I'm pretty sure you can get a decent one for about that price. I'd be willing to raise it like $90 or so..?

If a decent current-gen card costs £100+ for me then I'm sure it'll cost you a fair bit more than $90

Alright then. Just suggest something that can pretty much run BF3 on medium with 30 FPS.

GeForce 9500 GT was 60 bucks for me.  Dunno if it's what you're looking for, but you can give it a search on Newegg.

I'd prefer to be AMD, but I might think about it.

is this better than what I have?

A decent gpu is at least $200, good is $500, highend is ... Well, expensive.

uh, I've seen some pretty good high end ones for less than $500 if I'm not mistaken.

my dad said that he'd be willing to pay a lot, since I'm going to be receiving money from other people, and he'll pitch in the rest
so something around $200 please



That's nice I'm just getting my mother's boyfriend's brother to build me a new computer  :cookieMonster:

Why do you want a 2gb card? I can pretty much guarantee that a 1gb will be fine for you.

Sulfate is, errr, pretty wrong.

Your power supply has alot to do with what card you can get. How many watts is your current one?
