I have ordered from overclockers in the past, with no issues. I normally order my PC stuff from Dabs.com or aria.co.uk.

Nigel, check that your power supply (PSU) is up to the job before deciding which graphics card to go for. The one in your new PC might be at the lower end in terms of output and connectors if it's set up for an i3 with onboard graphics. New PSUs are not too pricey but it all adds up. In any event, although a processor hog a dedicated graphics card should bring a considerable improvement.

Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris

Got some advice and now ordered a Nvidia 560 at £140, has good write ups so looking forward to getting it sometime next week. There is an overclocked version which is around £165 but have been told for what I need it for there would be no need to shell out the extra £25 as the 560 in its' present 'unturbo charged' form is good enough for what I need as far as mid range graphic cards go.

Looking forward to it and will let you know once I get it to optimum settings.

Regards
Nigel.
