[Mention of overkill paradise killed :-) ] [talk about a good basic vga card, probably only 8bit deleted] I know that you can get some good 16bit basic vga cards. One local dealer sells a DFI-3000 VGA card for $130. It is an 16/8 bit video card has 256k video ram with no upgrade options. It will do 800*600*16, 640*480*16 and the standard vga modes. This card also works with all monitors, i.e. cga,ega,hercules, and vga. Hope this helps.
