        It's one of the best dx9 cards, and great value too.

              you shouldnt be worried about 2 cards, put the extra towards a new CPU.

              a E4500 would be your best bet;

                  for a better card you would need to spend quite a bit more,

                      its not that its just that the 8500/8600's are crap cards, so to get better would mean getting 8800GTS min for one of those is £180, but will see tomorrow (hopefully) about the prices of the 8800GT it "should" be £130-£180

                              512mb are the ones to get :)

                              Basically the 8800GT 512Mb seems to be 2-8% off a 8800GTX for normal resolutions and 5-10% for 1920*1200 resolution, but it can be had for as little as £135 compared to £290+ for an 8800GTX.
