what gfx card?

well im planning to get myself a new gfx card soon, was wondering what u would recommend?.. ive had probs with the 9800 since i got it (over heating, wanky render errors..)

looking for something recent, not too pricey.. and 256mb

im looking at this http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/958543...d/Product.html

want to go ATi since AMD bought em over, and AMD kicks ass..

edit, i take it a gfx card is easy 2 install (never done it b4! .. lol)

edit 2, also i take it all cards work with all mobo's aslong as its an AGP slot?

edit 3, now looking at this card http://www.hisdigital.com/html/produ...d=256&view=yes can pick 1 up for round £100
