Question Choosing a graphics card

Hi,

I'm not really the one to ask questions about hardware, but ever since I installed Mac OS X on "SYSTEM 2" (see my signature) I have run into nothing but trouble with graphics.

I can't live with this AGP nVidia GeForce Tornado 5200 FX. I only get 800x600 and no QE/CI anything I have tried has not worked. I also have a PCI ATI Radeon (not sure of the model) that supports VESA 2.0 up-to 1280x1024, but one of my friends told me that PCI does not support QE/CI.

I have a little spare cash, so could someone recommend me a cheap (about $50) AGP x4 graphics card?
my mobo only supports AGP x4 and PCI.

Thanks,
~ Cleo
