Hi, I have about a $200 budget for a new Video Card for this Xmas, which card do you guys recommend?
So far, I was thinking maybe between a Radeon 9700 128mb (non-pro) and a GForce FX 9700 Ultra 128mb, is there someonething better I can get? or which one of those is better?

Here are my sytem specs:

Processor: AMD Athlon XP 2500+ (Barton)
MoBo: ECS L7S7A2 SiS 746 Chipset ATX Motherboard
Ram: 512mb PC-2700 Kingston
Sound Card: Sound Blaster Live
<b>Video Card: Gainward G-Force 3 ti200 64mb</b>
HD 1: 40GB 7200rpm Maxtor
HD 2: 20GB 5400rpm Maxtor
Case: Antec Lanboy w/See thru window and 350watt PowerSupply
CD-RW: Hitachi 8X/4X/32X

You mean 9700np and 5700u. Well, the 5700u is newer, but the 9700np is better, you decide.
