Depending on your budget, but here's a few suggestion's that are my idea of good mid-range card's:

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=794150

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=797743

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=692674

But like i said, all depend's on your budget, and of course your favourite brand, personally i'm an XFX guy.

And will probably cost ~300$ and more and wont be available for some month?

I`d buy one now - wont get much cheaper. you can still sell it in some month and get a new one...

As of now the best is the 8800Gt, it spanks the 9 series, and it's cheaper than the GTS with the same if not better performance.

well thats what both companys are claiming and thats why they havent let anyone review the cards yet acording to them they dont want reviews flying around until the cards are on shop shelfs

Ok Thanks for help your guy's, even though money is no real problem, on this and other forums its clear that best i can do "value for money" is the 8800GT, yes the new ones are on the way but with all the leap frogging the company's do i could be waiting to see what comes and whats better for ages.

Thank you

@ MelVic

Wait for the new Nvidia cards to come out, check the Tom's hardware monthly article which usually sum up things well to choose a reference card for your budget, and finally look at specific benchmarks (+ warranty, ofc availability, etc) to choose the right manufacturer. Smile

EVGA lifetime warranty + step up program = pure win imo
