[quote="Jedi Marksman":474eb]ATI Radeon 9700 (non pro) os going for about [b]$200.00[/b].
ATI Radeon 9500 128MB goes for about [b]$140.00[/b], it's a good card for the price, but keep in mind ATI is phasing out the 9500's for the new 9600 series.
You may hear many vocal critics of the ATI cards, but really it comes down to the chipset on your motherboard.
GeForce 4 Ti4600 always gets a good "best bang for the buck rating". That retails for about [b]$180.00[/b].
The Geforce FX 5200 you can get for approximately [b]$100-$130.00[/b]. The fan get a noisy on the heatsink, but the grpahics quality for the price is excellent.
