Radeon 9550 agp for £53.52 ?

um... thats way overpriced.

Radeon 9600 256mb ddr, agp8x ,dvi,vga - £47.00
Gainward gforce 6200, 256mb ddr2,agp8x,- £44.00
club3d gforce 6600, 256md ddr,agp8x - £65.00

For SL id use a gforce anything above 6x00, pref min 6600 and above.

I dont know what shipping there cost, but www.komplett.co.uk , (i use norwegian one tho) is very fast & cheap, usually.

You guys have about the same prices we have for pc parts.
