I've decided that i'll be going for the 4850 now instead of the 70. This is because i'm currently using a 19 inch monitor, and will only upgrade to a max of 24inch. For now, and the near future, i think a 4850 will be enough, and i can always CF it next year if i need more. (I'll be getting a OC'd version for about 100-120 dollars less than the normal 4570) http://www.overclockers.co.uk/...-Express)%20-%20Retail

I can then put that extra money towards a better 24 incher, i think it's a good idea.

BEFORE YOU BUY:

Check prices on www.scan.co.uk - it seems to have a lot of items cheaper than OCUK most of the time. I've used them plenty of times and they're pretty good.

Thanks for that, i am trying to look around, but i'm not in the UK atm, and searching on google for uk stores is a bit tough.

Any other suggestions? I know of ebuyer, scan, overclockers... any other major ones that are good value? *UK only*

www.pixmania.co.uk operates a business in the UK - their products are technically sent from France but fwiw I've bought RAM and a graphics card off them in the last few months and got my stuff the next day with no hassle. They're a big seller on amazon.co.uk, you might recognise them.
