Are you tired of slow or choppy game play? Was your PC top of the line just 2 years ago but now looks like the ZX Spectrum? If so then maybe its time for a graphics card upgrade!

Fortunately Novatech are here with three great offers on graphics cards to suit every budget and every case size.

That extra boost ATI Radeon 5670 – £92.99	Powerful without the cost GeForce GTX 465 – £163.98	Ultimate graphics power ATI Radeon 5850 – £233.99
Designed for the gamer who wants to play the latest games with great detail – Crysis works great at medium resolution.	Requiring a minimum 500W power supply this graphics card is capable of playing Crysis at max resolution.	Designed to work with multiple displays at the same time this is a true monster of graphics performance.

Solid state disk drives are great if you want super fast storage but once you leave the 128GB mark they just get into silly money (at least for most people).
So what if you are a enthusiast PC gamer who wants the fastest load times but wants to keep the budget at around £1,000?

It must be time for the new and greatly improved 6Gb/s Western Digital VelociRaptors.

Available now from Computer Planet (link) in any compatible PC and from Novatech (link) as a upgrade to your PC these new hard drives have double the transfer speed of the previous generation and a capacity of up to 600GB.

So what makes the VelociRaptor so special?
While most normal Desktop PC hard drives would spin at either 5,400rpm or 7,200rpm the VelociRaptor spins at a massive 10,000rpm; furthermore it comes with the latest SATA-III connector (which is why you need to be sure your motherboard is compatible) allowing for up to 6GB/s of transfer speed.
