    I'd go for either a 6600GT or an x800.

    There's a Powercolor x800 for €212 on Komplett and 6600GT's from €195 to €230. You should be happy enough with either for the price.

    Avoid getting the 6600GT and get the 6800GT if possible. If you are lucky, you will get a bargain somewhere from a bito ver 200 euro.. The performance increase will more than jusitify that small jump in price..

    You could always get a 6800LE for €180 on Komplett and clock it to GT/ultra standards.

    EDIT: Just realised that €180 one is AGP. Have a look around at other sites for that or go with the 6600GT.

    pretty nice 6800 256mb gddr3 there, with rivatuner you'll more than likely be able to unlock the extra 4 pipes and have a gt speed card, only 30 quid over your budget
