need advice on video card for samsung 910T

[fluxquantum]

hello everyone,

i just bought a samsung 910T flat panel but unfortunately my current video card is not up to date. so, i would like a decent video card with dvi capabilities. i'm leaning toward an nvidia card like chaintech fx5700 ultra or a gigabyte. my budget is sort of tight (150 - 200). any advice would be appreciated.

anyone have any ideas?

Are you a gamer? If so what games do you play?

Well given your budget used Radeon 9800 Pro for around $160 from the FS/T forum would be good. If you want to stick with Nvidia, 6600GT for around $230 or 6800nu for around $250 would be good but little out of your budget.
