Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

Can someone select a PCI-E graphics card here for me:

http://www.rlsupplies.co.uk/103-pci-express-graphics-card

I need one to play Skyrim on a fairly tight budget. I want to be below the steepening of the price curve but have something for reasonably high graphics settings.

The processor will be a good quad core.

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.

ASUS caters to gamers, it has a gig of RAM on it and it doesn't need a power connector.

No. Never buy Asus made Graphics cards. That's bottom of the barrel grade A crap (everything from Asus is crap). Get one from EVGA ( for Nvidia) or MSI (for Radeon).

Yep, not heading for ASUS and can afford a bit more than that anyway.
Thankyou for the reply though.

Looking to pay about £50-60, less if I can and can pay £75 if given a good cause, or even more if someone really sells me on a card.

I would personally chose this card:

http://www.rlsupplies.co.uk/pci-express-graphics-card/2202305-gigabyte-nvidia-gts-450-1gb-dual-dvd-i-vga-displayport-hdmi-.html

I had an Nvidia GTX240 which ran Skyrim on High fairly well, so this should possibly be able to play it on ultra or high.

Just be aware you need at least a 500w power supply and the connector cable which, depending on the power supply, may not be available.
