...are likely to be sold a costly card by them dreaded IT salesmen. Now onto the geeky stuff.... ~ ATI X800Pro 256mb DDR3 ~ With my previous card lacking power and unable to play games to my satisfaction I decided to save up and get something with a little kick to it. After a fair bit of research into graphic card technology and prices I decided on this mainly due to its cost of £75 new.

Advantages: Superb Graphics Quality, Cheaper than some competitors
Disadvantages: Some users may not be able to afford it
