Scott,
I have used Stealth cards and currently use a SiS 3D Pro AGP in my
primary machine (excellent card - except Caldera's graphical install hates
it). I generally shoot for less than $50 per video card, I don't have the need
for all the fancy cards. You might want to take a look at the video card
database for Ideas too, I really haven't had any problems with any of the low
end cards that I generally buy. The memory is important though get as much as
you can afford in your bracket, it'll pay off in X.
