Is there a worthwhile upgrade for a 6850 around the £100 mark? I'm currently gaming at 1600 by 900 (but am thinking of upgrading) - Elite:dangerous mainly. It may not be worth upgrading the graphic unless I spend a lot more and get a better monitor - any advice welcomed!
What are the specs of the rest of your PC as this will help to inform any advice given in regards to a GPU upgrade.
I have a phenom 965be with 2 extra cores unlocked, 16gb of 1600mhz ddr3 and Windows 7 running of a 256gb ssd with some 1tb Samsung storage drives (mainly holding my steam directory!) My monitor is a lowly 20 inch 1600x900 but space is limited where it is so I could go to a 22 full HD monitor but probably not bigger! It might be worth upgrading the monitor and waiting for the new GPU lines to drive down prices! Tbh I don't experience any graphics issues at present but I want to spend the cash I have before the kids find a use for it!
