What's the best ~$50 AGP Video card?

I am putting together a Budget System. I bought a Duron 1600 / PC Chips M811LU Combo, an Antec SLK1650B Case (W/Antec 350W PS), and will put in either one or 2 sticks of 256MB PNY PC2100.

I would like to put in a decent card without ruining my budget. I looked for a decent used card, but no one wants to sell a used DX8 card for $30. I am currently looking at a Radeon 9250 128MB DDR AGP for a whopping $43.

Any better suggestions then the 9250 (BTW: It is a 128MB and 128-Bit card)? How would a 9600SE or a 9000 Pro stand up to the 9250?

How would a GF3 or FX5200 (I've only heard bad things about those) stand up to the 9250?

Thanks for your time and help.
 
Radeon 9000 Pro is the fastest out of all you listed. If you can find a 128 bit 9000 pro for the price you want, go for it. Also, you could look on ebay for a used Geforce 4 Ti4200. The ti4200 is faster than the 9000 pro by a good bit, so if you can get that go for it.
