It's almost time to order my workstation replacement.  I've got all the 
components picked out except a Video Card.    I haven't ever purchased one 
new, so I've got no feel for what's good or bad.  

My requirements
-Nvidia chip set
-PCI Express x 16 card slot
-2 x DVI out (going to dual monitors, at last!)
-should be able to handle playing some occasional video (myth or online stuff) 
without choking.
-Not a gamer, so bleeding edge gaming strength is not a requirement. 

Thanks in advance for your input.
