Best graphics card for ~$40-50?

Not for any serious gaming; 2-D and crisp text are much more important. Preferably AGP. Any suggestions?

Well, I won't pretend I can tell you what is best, but, I picked up a retail Radeon 7500 at BB today for $74.99 - $20 mail in rebate. It seemed like a damn good deal to me.

I picked it up for upgrading the kids 440bx box from a VooDoo3.

I must say that for 54.99 I am verrrrry happy with the bang for the buck.


.02 cents
