Hi RobH,

GeForce4 Ti4200 or ATI Radeon 8500 would be my two choices.

There is already a thread here about the best ti4200 to get.

However since I am here, I say MSI, Gainward or Asus. Others have had good experiences with VisionTek and LeadTek, but I recommend one of the first three companies.

Asus, Abit, Leadtek, Visiontek, Gainward, MSI, PNY, Hercules, and eVGA are all good brands. I personally like Visiontek and Abit.
