Default Which graphics card?

I need a new graphics card for my PC and need some advice on which one to buy, I'm looking to spend no more than 150 pounds.

What would people out there recommend for a graphics card that offers the best features for VJs?

I need a card with an s-video out.

Theres quite alot of info on these forums - search which video card if you don't get the answer you desire.
In short:
Most video cards are focused on 3d performance. 2D performance (video, vector and anything pixelated) has pretty much reached its peak years back. So really theres little point going to the upmarket cards without needing HD output etc... unless of course youre working alot in open GL or some other RT 3D format.
Go with N-vidia's. They have alot less problems than radeons in my experience.
