I don't know much about video cards I could search for stuff less than $70 but I wouldn't know if it was any good or not

The Radeon dont look to bad, esp if your running hdmi. I never was a fan of ATI but i have one now and it works just fine. I would reccomend the EVEGA as there are more than 2 reviews And the 1g memory. But your the one paying for it so its up to you.

9500gt is not that great. You should save a little more for a real card. All these cheap lower leveled cards are not worth it.
8800gt-9800gt or 4850

Save for an 8800, 9800, or don't buy one at all - especially if you have a 7900.

+1 Don't waste your time with cheap cards as you will see no performance increase. Save your money for a while longer and spend it on a worthwhile card rather than wasting it on something cheap and you won't be disappointed.
9800 gtx (very good bang for buck)

I am also considering this one I just don't need a $200 video card since my monitors max resolution is only 1440x900 and high settings are not that important to me just being able to play new games at medium settings is ok

The 1st one suggested is gay, 128bit, ddr2, that's too old. Get a gainward 8800gt with 1gb, I've been using that one for a year and a half now and can run basically anything on max
