    I was wanting to buy a graphics card mainly to run Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, I guess my spec could run the game but at the moment I am running integrated graphics so I need an upgrade.

    My spec is;
    - AMD Athlon II X3 440 3GHz Socket AM3
    - ASUS M4A78L-M LE AM2+
    - Western Digital WD5000AAKS 500GB SATAII 7200RPM 16MB Cache
    - Crucial 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 1066MHz Memory Kit CL7 1.8V Unbuffered Non-ECC
    - Sumvision 500W 20+4pin SATA 80mm

    I don't mind either ATI or Nvidia which ever is the best quality for my budget which is around £60. I could put my budget up to £90 if the card is that special but I'd rather not spend that much but if it's a better suggestion then I can. As a reminder I mainly want it to run Assassin's Creed Brotherhood.

    Thanks Zak :D

    Do you mind if it's new or not? You can find a Radeon 4870 on Ebay for £71 including delivery, or one which is near new for £6 more.
