Don't go under an NVidia 6600GT, .............. watch out for cheap imitations. Stretch the budget to a X800GT if you prefer ATI cards, that's the bottom of the performance range

6800LE ;) A far better card than a 6600GT , especially when "unlocked"

Leadtek, XFX

PNY have been implicated in above average failures from what I've read over the years, I think a recent thread in these forums as well.
