There's a thread on the board that ranks video cards from really low end to really high end. It depends really on what you're doing.
Are you actually using a laptop or a desktop machine? There are a few things to consider. Laptops cards will be more expensive and in the long run harder to upgrade. Desktop cards are *relatively* cheaper and easier for replacing and stuff.
The run of the mill desktop card at the moment I believe is an Nvidia 7600gt with 128mb dedicated ram on board...and if you can manage it, go for 256 (or more). These do cost a small fortune though. However, if money is not a problem then I'm sure you can go better.
Not 100% sure on what the best spec is for laptop's I'm afraid - although this is being questioned almost daily on the boards. Have a search for 'Laptop' and you'll see bundles of threads worth reading.
Cheers...and keep spinnin'...(",)
