Hi, I have a hp pavilion amd 850 cpu with nvidia vanta 16mb graphics card. I want to do video editing and i'd like to know a good graphics card to upgrade to. Thanks for any help.
 
For video editing you don't need much. ATi Radeon 9000/9100/9200SE would all do fine, as would a good (check RAMDACs to be sure it's 400mhz) FX5200 (maybe get FX5600SE to be sure). If you're willing to pay a little more you could get better 2D quality from a Matrox P650.

What are you displaying to BTW, LCD, CRT, ???
