Re: Cheap & Cheerful Graphics Card
One other thing, is this a basic card for a new build (on AGP 2.0 or 3.0, 4x or 8x).

If it's to revive an older setup, then you may be looking at AGP 1.0 (1x/2x at 3.3V), which some modern cards will not support, or possibly even a PCI.

In case some smart alec suggests PCI Express, I'll mention that too, though putting a new PCI-E motherboard in with the lowest of the low graphics in PCI-E would be a very poor choice.
