Check out the wiki for compatible graphics cards.

http://www.tonymacx86.com/wiki/index.php?title=Graphics_Card_Database

It all depends on your day-to-day needs. There really is no "best" card in my opinion.

Also, most everyone here has their video card as part of their signature or profile so that can also help you see who is running what.

Good luck!

Are you having any lockups or freezing with your video card? Any issues running in 64 Bit?

Thank you.
