I'm in the beginining stages of building a custom system, and am trying to decide on a graphics card. I'll be going with an AMD X2 4200, but havn't decided on a mobo or GPU just yet. I am not looking for specific recomendations, but advice on what to look for when comparing cards. I can't afford the top of the line, but would like a decent card for editing photos, graphics and possibly in the future watching hi-def video. Right now I'm leaning towards a GeForce 6600 GT, but what else should i be looking for in a video card? How important is the manufacturer, since they all use the same chipset? I'm not a gamer either, so gaming performance isn't a big deal. Thanks for any advise!
Also, does anyone know where i could find a nice priceerformance ratio chart for current video cards?
