Which video card should I use in a Windows 2000 box, not used for gaming, just small amounts of graphics and the usual other stuff?

-- ATI RADEON 32MB DDR - [Currently using, having few issues, this is the OEM "Powered By" version, might need a better driver if I can find one]
-- 3dfx Voodoo5 5500 AGP 64MB SDR - [I already own this, it has been sitting around]
-- ASUS AGP-V7700 Deluxe 32MB DDR - [Could purchase for around $35, is it worth it over the other two?]

Radeons are supposed to have superior 2D quality, even thought it's a powered by card, I'd prolly go with it.

If you wanna run your Vood005 heck go for it why not? At least you can bask in remembrence of their hayday.

If you were gaming you might get that AsusGTS? I think that's what the v7700 is, I had the v7100. If your not gaming I wouldn't worry about spending the cash for the other card.

all of those cards are more or less the same speed, with the voodoo5 pulling the low end (that is assuming the Asus 7700 is a gts card, which i believe it is). i wouldn't bother with switching out.
