GeForce 2 MX will do nicely.
It is very value-priced, and offers stellar performance for its price range.

Since I'm Canadian, it's different for me, but about $200 Canadian.

However if your video card does not support Direct 3D, then it might not work (not too sure about that)

Just because you have DirextX 8 doesn't mean you'll see the lighting effects...I have a voodoo card and won't see the light effects untill Stefan adds OpenGL support....and I do have DirectX 8

His card might not even support DirectX 7 and that's what he needs most to see the lights...he needs to update his drivers for his card so it will support DirectX 7-8....his cards haven't been updated for awhile..I know this cause I'm trying to help him on it.

I had a video card that supported DirectX 7, and I had a huge amount of problems with that system. On this one, which is running DirectX 7 on a GeForce 2 GTS, I can see light effects, but disabled them because they're overused and I don't think they look that good.

The lighing effects are good in some places, just not in the Underground Lake.

BTW: I am using Crono's font because I am bored.
