I prefer nVidia, but the Radeons do give the best value in this situation.

I would go with nvidia, but I couldn't fault someone who is into only light gaming for going with a radeon.

I would go with the Radeon 7500, I recently upgraded to a Radeon 7000 64MB card and it will work great for light gaming/web browsing(weather graphiovs downloading).. If you prefer get the 7500.
