How much would I spend on a new video card?

The Cost of Buying a Video Card

If you have decided to purchase a new video card, you should investigate the cost of this new card. Graphic designers or others involved in creating video as a career will tell you to purchase a video card costing more than you would like to spend.

However, if the video card is only needed for multimedia on a home computer, finding a more affordable video card is best. Video cards usually sell for between $100-$200. For this price range, it is possible to buy a fairly good video card to suit your family's needs with at least 128 megabytes of video memory, but the high-end cards at 256 megabytes can cost between $400-$500.
