Hello.

For Christmas this year, I'm looking to buy myself a new video card. The one currently in my computer is a horrible Intel card. It came with the computer, and I'm looking to replace it. Unfortunately, I am not very knowledgeable with video cards, so I came here for advice.

Does anyone know a good video card to buy within the 50-70 dollar price range?

Try tigerdirect.com or newegg.com - they generally have the best prices you'll get for computer stuff on the Internet.

As for the kind of card you can get, 50-70 dollars will get you a decent 128 MB, w/ 5000~ish ATI. This will allow you to run high graphics games at medium to high settings.
