    A GTX 560 Ti 448-core edition. It's easily possible to overclock it past a GTX 570 in performance.

    Why not a 570 so you can OC it even further?

    570 but you could get a cheap 2nd hand 580 but not much difference between 570 and 580 so 570 logical bet.

    Just trying to be the most efficient spender of money I can. Also I ballsed up the conversion from dollars to pounds and thought he had less money than he did. So yeah I'd recommend a 570.

    Wait for Radeon 7970/7950 as soon as they come along 6000 series should come down a bit... and you could pick up a 6950/6970
