is that a good one then? i realy have very little knowledge of PC parts mate

me either, but it runs my games, like COD1, UT2004 and Need For Speed: Most Wanted...

The constant upgrading of P.C.s is what puts me off using them for gaming...I even get fed up with the PS3 always telling me "version so & so" of a game update needs downloading, Burnout:Paradise seems to want me to download something every time I play it, what sould be a 5 min' play turns into a night time of watching installation progress bars!!!

Well, Catalyst is a program, not a particular card.

Latest drivers are here, Sundance:

ATI, Catalyst, Radeon its all Greek to me

yes. it will play CoD4. it should play MW2 as well.

£22 sounds awfully cheap sundance has it not blown up yet

no, working fine. been punishing it with a lot of UT2004 this last week or so, too.
