Ok, so I said I wanted a new gpu and was looking to get a gtx 970. However, I just can't get enough funds saved before something comes up that's needs my savings before hand :( So after looking around and hoping to get any gpu up to £150, that is all I got as my new job is costing me a fortune in travel costs (£45 a week) until they refund me in the new tax year :) I had a look around and the best I could get for that price was the MSI GTX 670 for £145. However, I came across an MSI GTX 580 Twin Frozr II for £80 and tbh I couldn't resist it at that price. So I now have an MSI GTX 580 Twin Frozr II but wait I found out I have the 3GB version too :shock: think I came out lucky on that one. Around 15-20% performance increase in most games I have and finally enough memory to max games out without running out of memory :lol:

Well done. Cheapest 970 i see is 239.

I see a very good deal. A MSI AMD ATI Radeon 7950 3GB or Twin FrozR II version for £95 with 90 day warranty or the 2GB version for £60. 7950 equal to the R9 280 and not far behind a 580.
