I am building a non-SLi system around AMD X2 3800+. The system won't be used for gaming much, but would be used for mutimedia mostly (occasional video encoding and such). Am looking to buy a PCI-express 16 based video card in the $50-75 range.
Following cards are available on newegg in that range:
Not the greatest performing GPU's by far, but for multi-media it will do just fine. TBH anything (with the exception of the X550) would be considered sufficient. I"m basing my opinion on simple features though.
Thanks Raven. Am looking for an overall decent card in that price range.
Would a X1300Pro_based/256MB based card be a good buy in the $75-80 range? If so which brand - Asus, MSI, Sapphire or Gigabyte?

256Mb is a waste on an X1300 Pro. 128Mb tops.
Those are all quality brands. Look at warranty, reviews, things included in box, etc.
