Looking for Graphics card GTX 460

Technoholic

hi guys

Im looking for a GTX 460 1GB card, not the 768mb. i need the 1gb card for gaming at 1920x1200. What id like is to find this card for as close to £110 as possible. If anyone has any tips or hints or deals that you might have seen, i would love to know. I suspect i wont be able to get it for less than £130 but just thought id throw it out here in case someone has seen something.

Cheers!

£111 + del from here.

Personally, I'd go for the 6850 for £15 more

thanks for that, but thats the smart edition which a cut down version, somewhere between the 768 and full blown 1gb. Also is pixmania ok? ive heard bad things about them?

Ah right, no idea what smart edition meant. Pixmania one of those marmite companies, like very, scan etc.

But yeah, £130 would be best price if you can find it for that. Take it you're not keen on ATI cards?

Should have ordered yesterday, prices gone up everywhere by £5 or so.

im not dead against them, just got a natural leaning towards nvidia. having said that, looking at the specs of the 6850, it does look good, i want a dx11 card to be future proof, i dont game heavily but when i do it will be on a high res screen, so need the bandwidth.

i am leaning towards that card more now, have you seen any good deals for that one?
