Which Video Card?

Which video card would you go with:

LEADTEK GEFORCE 2 MX200 32MB VGA
ATI XPERT 2000 PRO 32MB 4X AGP
CardExpert GeForce2 MX 200 32MB SDRAM AGP

I am not an intense gamer so I do not need video card for that purpose. Just looking for an all around good card (best bang for the buck). The ATI is the cheapest thru Newegg where I am planning on ordering it from but if one of the other's is much better, I will spring for it.

I do not believe it should matter, but planning on combining it with an ECS K7S5A motherboard with a Duron 950Mhz & 512mb of Simple Tech 133mhz SDRAM.

If your not gaming then I'd go with the Rage 128 based XPert 2000, it's a better all around card then the MX200. The only advantage to the MX200 is superior gaming performance over the XPert 128.

You can get a Radeon VE for only abut $9-10 more then the MX200 though, and it's a better gaming card then the MX200 and is superior in pretty much every other way as well except possibly driver support.

ATI all the way. The 2D quality for spreadsheets, web browsing etc. will look cleaner. The Mx200 is probably a slightly better for gaming, but since that's not an issue the ATI card will win. It looks like you can get the ATI Xpert 2000 at www.newegg.com for $39 dollars shipped.
