Graphics Card Recommendation?

This one is pretty good value for your money, i'd definately buy this over other cards at the same sort of price range.

If you can stretch out another £5 the 256mb version would be better.

What exactly do you need the 512mb of video ram for? If its because someone told you to get the most ram you can then don't make it a priority if the card is as cheap as this. You'd be better off with a faster card with lower ram than a slower one with more ram, because the slower can't might be able to load up bigger textures etc, but it won't be able to process them as fast so it kind of cancels it out. If you have the faster card it might need to access the textures more often, but it will be able to process them faster so it should give you a faster image.

The best you're going to get on Ebuyer for the speak you're after is the Innovision 3D 7300GT 512MB DVI VGA PCI E Graphics Card at £31

Nope, it isn't look here, the 7600gs floors it, being nearly twice as fast despite half the memory

So...the one with the faster clock speed...and less ram is the one to go for?

Im ordering in a bit....the following:

and.... a graphics card.....opinions? pc seems pretty damn good spec IMO....anyone?

The 256mb 7600gs would fit perfectly in with that system, giving you a well balanced system capable of playing most current and upcoming titles with high settings on that monitor. The 512mb of ram would be wasted with that monitor, its only really needed at resolutions of 1680x1200 and upwards, the 19" one is 1440x900 so 256mb will be more than enough.

tsorry i dshould have explained....that graphics card isnt for that system....its for : a64 3200, 1gb ram, asus mobo

So....which graphics card should i get, and which pc....whole lot has to come in at around £370...help please?

Well the little mini acer one is about the same spec as you've just listed. Theres very little difference in the processors. So it still applies.

The spec of the second one is better, the dual core processor would be more fitting for a vista based pc than an old single core one. I'd go for the second pc unit with this screen
