Yes, 7300GT is a good option to go with. You can also go with 8600GT as its also cheap these days. As the card depends on your budget you'll pick the one that suits it the best. Any of nvidia work fine, 7300GT ,7600GT ,8500GT ,8600GT , 8800GT/GTS. Very good card is 7900/7950GT but its a bit expensive even now.
I had no problems with a Geforce 8400GS!
And it's very cheap at the moment, only about 29 euros in Germany (256MB).
Worked great!
Yes, that video card should work fine!
According to the HCL it's fully working with NVinstaller v.41.
The ATI X1600Pro card is also fine. The Gigabyte Radeon X1600 Silentpipe 2 256MB (with heatpipe) is sometimes < 20 Euro on ebay.
