    Compatible Graphics Card

    Hi, I have been using Fedora for some time now, and I think its time for me to get a new graphics card. The card I have not is an ATI x700 PRO. It runs off of the proprietary driver, and is currently not supported by any Linux distro unless I get an older one. I was wondering what card would be good for my computer? I am trying to stay in the 50 to 75 dollar range...

    My computer Specs are:

    AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+
    2.20 GHz and 2GB RAM
    Motherboard: A8AE-LE (AmberineM)

    Thanks!

    It would be nice to know what kind of video interface your motherboard has, without having to google it.

    That being said, although I have read a lot lately where ATI's linux drivers are pretty good, I still prefer Nvidia cards...

    Also, I wish I had read this earlier as an online retailer had an 8400GS on sale for $7.99! Well within your budget, I would presume. lol

    I'm sorry, the type of video card it uses is PCI-Express.
