Thanks for the receipts mate, cannit remember if I already said it!
£500 max. The main thing I want it for is the graphics card as I need it for video editing, so it needs a card with dual monitor support + HDMI out. Nvidia seems to be the best, I've seen the Geforce GTX 460 which seems canny, but it's knowing all the right bits to go with it.

Why not go with AMD ?
Something like this with a lot of RAM will benefit you with video editing:

Try pcspecialist.co.uk. You can build yer own there and get an idea.
Also, get down to wh smiths. One of the latest pc mags is reviewing 30 odd graphics cards this month. Not sure which one tho. Sorry.
Cheers for that, just the sort of thing I was looking for.
