8800GTS or the 9600GT would be your choices. The 9600 GT and the 8800GT are to close to call and the the 8800GT is about 20 to 30 quid more. The 512 GTS is a better card though. As for Power Supply Unit you have enough watts but im guessing its a budget model so an OCZ 600 watt jobbie would be the way to go. Ebuyer do not stock them and the Seasonics which are better are more expensive but ccl do OCZ eXtreme PSUs from CCL - Awarded Best Online Retailer 2007 & 2006
