Hi everyone I've just joined the forum and have pretty much the same question as all before me!
This is the system that I am building, and have most parts allready but am confused about the graphics card.

Based around Mike's Hardware "Best Value System"
Motherboard Asus A7N8X Deluxe v.2
Processor AMD Athlon XP 2800+
HS&Fan Cooler Master Aero7 Lite (3200+)
Memory 2x512Mb Crucial PC3200 DDR SDRAM
Hard Drive Western Digital Caviar JD 120Gb (8Mb, SATA)
Floppy Drive Alps 1.44Mb
DVD+- NEC ND2500A Dual Format 8X

Graphics Card Tyan Radeon 9600 Pro, 128Mb
Sound Card nVidia APU (6ch, on board)
Speakers Creative Inspire 5300 OEM

From what I have read this looks like a 3D gamers card and I dont play them, but I do want to edit video, at present I have just added a Firewire card to my existing setup but the new MB has Firewire on board.

So, as I would rather spend less than £100, better £60-70, what can I get for this new system? and from what I have been reading prefer ATI.
Thanks in advance for all help regards Lorne.

I'm over in the US and it's 12:00 midnight here, so I'm too tired to find a converter to change those amounts into US dollars. As such, I'm just completely guessing about how much £60-70 is in US dollars.

Anyway, I'd hate to go exactly opposite of what you said about wanting ATI, the nVidia GeForce FX5700 has proven itself to be pretty good. If that's too expensive, a Radeon 9600 Pro is just fine. Stick a big third-party cooler on it and overclock its pants off. It'll have performance going into the Radeon 9700 Pro range after overclocking!

From what I read "3d gaming cards" as you put it, are quite good for video related tasks, after all, games aren't exactly light on system resources..
