Always best to get the best; such
as Nvidea 8600 with 512 Mb or 740 MB ram video memory.

That's what I'm getting next?

You bet. Been using ATI Radeon's for years with no problems. Still using a 7500 since MTU recommended it to start testing Hoster with when Hoster first came out, and it's never missed a lick.

I forgot to mention, if you go with ATI, make certain it is advertised as MADE BY ATI, and not POWERED BY ATI.

The POWERED BY variety are made by other manufacturers who pay ATI to use some of their patents and have caused problems.
