budget system - need video card

[w0lf42]

I'm building out a system for a friend with spare parts. I'm short a few things, including a video card.

The system currently has:
Asus A7V
AMD Thunderbird 700
Crucial 256MB 133 RAM

I was hoping to get the best card I can get for $100. (Of course, if I can get away with spending less, that would be very cool).

Any suggestions?

8500, or Ti4200 64MB would be good for that system. Watch for the clock speeds on the 8500, which is the same thing as the 9100. Try to get at least 250/250 if you can, 230/230 is probably ok for the system you have.

Of course you could go with a GF2, or Radeon 7500 if you don't game. Radeon if your just mostly doing 2D work, or if you do some gaming, the 9100, or 4200 would be good choices.
