    I'd go with the ATi 9600XT-based cards, they're very good. Also, the 9800SE comes in at about that price, but I don't know what it's like. The nVidia 5700 is generally outpaced by the 9600XT, especially on DX9 games, or when using Anisotropic filtering or antialiasing.

    So, in simple terms go for the Radeon 9600XT. Will beat the pants of nvidia and will perform to your needs on all games and upcoming releases too. komplett.ie have them from about €200.
