this 480gtx seems to have good cooling btw, i'd personally go for 560gtx regarding the nvidia side

Id buy anything with more than 1.5gb or VRAM. I think 6950 2gb is the best bang for the buck at this moment. You can bios upgrade it to 6970 and with some manufactures it does not even void warranty. 560TI is not a bad card either, but you´d have to find one with more VRAM than 1gb and I don´t know the cost of that. Or go all out and buy fastest Nvidia single gpu card or Ati 6970 factory OC´d or one with good cooler for OC´ing.

Just got off the phone from Overclockers UK and they will RMA the card. What excellent service from these guys, hopefully they will be able to offer me a good alternative to replace the card.
As for the Nvidia card that I was looking at it's a corker. It's only a few FPS slower that the top range Nvidia and it has half the price. |

Hopefully when it goes back and they confirm the card is faulty they said they would replace it with something suitable. I would not turn down a 6950 as they are easily flash able and the 2 gig version seems to eat COD for breakfast.

Get more than 1Gig ram. 6950 is a nice card, and can often be changed to a 6970
