I have an Asus 9560 (128mb) and its a superb piece of kit!
Despite the Celeron CPU.......
I'd say you could expect great performance from any of the Nvidia FX's or Ati 9000 series cards.
I'd be more concerned about your motherboards chipset, if the one your thinking of is based on "Nforce2" then great! - happy simming, if not, I'd re-consider one that's Nforce2 based - the best chipset for an AMD system from what I read..............
Me, I just have to wait until I can replace this Celeron heap for something a little more beefy (533fsb 2.4ghz P4 should do it!) - At least,unlike me, you've got a CPU to match whatever card you settle on Daz. ;)
