    first off you don't need that much power! :eek:

    this will help you choose the GPU..

    your's is somewhere outside the top ten, not that i'm saying you should pay loads for a GPU...

    for example, the Radeon HD 6950 is 4th on the list, only the new nvidia GTX's are higher but.... the 6950 is around 250 on the same site where the GTX's are nearly 200 euro more!! :p

    I'll be going for something similar very soon, and I'm going for 6950. You can unlock it to 6970 which makes it great value for around 260. It's 100 more than 460, so it's up to you.
