Looking for a cheap and good video card

I am building a computer for college and need advice on a video card to buy. I might do some gaming but nothing to serious. Just Half-Life 2 and some other games. I am looking to spend at the most $150 for the card. I don't really care if its Nvidia or ATI. I just need some suggestions of what to pick and why. Thanks
 
From ATI's side: X1600 XT is somewhat cheaper (the cheapest one is ~$140), but it does not offer nearly the same level of performance as 7600GT. The next card up the ladder for ATI (for current generation cards) is X1800 GTO, but it starts at ~$200.
