A good amount of them, But with 90 pounds id save up my money, and get a GTX 260 or a 4870 as i mentioned earlier. What is your mother board? if its ati then go with 4870 if its a nvidia chipset go with a nvidia card like GTX 260.

nvidia and amd chipsets make no differents, aka.
I have a geforce chipset (nvidia mcp and all that) and it has a AMD socket. So therefore your logic has been invalidated

but what are the chances his specific motherboard can do that? 1 in 100? who cares. he's asking for a single card. not crossfire/sli'ing 2 cards. SINGLE. also, all x58 boards support both sli and crossfire. (as far as i know)
@op, i reckon you should get a 4870.

Hmmm...I'd save a little more cash and get the 260. That's literally exactly what I JUST did like two weeks ago. I was going to buy a 250, but I saved up and got a 260 instead. I read somewhere that it's actually a newer architecture than the 250, and therefore has several performance advantages over it. But unfortunately I got my 260 via EVGA's step-up program, so, they've shipped it out, but it won't be here until next Wednesday. T~T
