If you have PCI-Express capability, I scored me a shiny new nVidia 9500GT for $80 after shipping. It plays City of Heroes on max pretty at 1200x1024 (or
thereabouts, I don't remember exactly what res my desktop uses). It also comes in a fan-less flavor, which I like (one less power connection to make, one
less potential thing to stop working).
nVidia also has much better support (both software-wise and warranty) than ATI. And lets not even go into ATIs "universal" drivers, which, uh,
aren't.
(Granted, nVidia has some driver issues too, but nowhere NEAR the amount ATI has.)
