Stuart. Well, it all depends on what you want to do. Graphics/video rendering? Games? The 550-560 cards provide a goo bang per buck, esp. with an i7 950 and lots of system RAM. -- Linux Counter #230211 |

I have been running the 285 since November 2010 and see its limited regarding DX11 I am not really desperate for the ultimate (nice I know) as I am trying to be realistic with cost Thanks. |
