The FX5600-VTDR128 won "editor's choice" in a VGA card roundup at Toms
Hardware. You can get them for only $169 if you search on Pricewatch (I
found a good deal at http://www.gameve.com).

It's got a nearly silent fan (25DB), a remote control, video-in, and a TON
of bundled software (Duke Nukem Manhattan Project, Ghost Recon, and
others). There's cards out there that get higher benchmark scores, but for
the price and range of bundled software, it's still a fast card with a lot
of value for the price, in my opinion.

I don't quite have one yet although I'm very strongly considering this
card for an upgrade I'm doing.
