I came across on old BFG Tech GeForce GTX 260 for around £40 with delivery, I was considering buying but I've run out of money again

 

EDIT: Just come across these but I'm not sure if I'd risk it, you never know how it was treated.

Should give you a pretty decent upgrade from a GeForce 9600 GT, I had one of those and it was a pretty decent card in my opinion.

You could have a look on scan.co.uk (I think it's an international company) for any refurbished GeForce GTX 460's and GTX 560's

 

Edit: Just found a couple for you to have a look at, if you're not interested then that is OK :)

Then go to scan and check out the cards there, the cheapest HD7790 is 112.50 pounds including VAT. Or, you can get an MSI HD7770 at 80 pounds including VAT:

Best part is, both cards comes with Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, hence best bang for buck........need I say more?
