I recently bought a GeForce 6200 for ~$30 from newegg--and i could have gone
cheaper.  This should be plenty for anything that you might want to do,
supports XvMC for hardware accelerated mpeg2 playback, and of course, works
well with the flashy effects.  Mine is also passively cooled (quiet) and has
VGA, DVI, S-vidio, Composite, and Component out ports.  Not too bad.
