Cheap card for dual-screen

[J_I_M_B_O]

I currently have an Nvidiva GeForce 6100 onboard card (piece of dung) I'd like to get a new video card in the area of $50. Nothing fancy, preferably multiple outputs

just for dual output, or for gaming?

I'd assume that because he's running an onboard 6100 that he's using PCI-E.

I would suggest getting a 6200 if you're only looking for dual output. If you'd like anything more, for $50, I'd go on ebay and look for 9800pro/xt, 6600, or 6600GT.

It all really depends on what you're looking for this new card to do.

got an X300 SE in my work machine for dual monitors. Mind you they frown on gaming here at work

I will be gaming and I know this may seem strange but I am playing Oblivion on that on board card. And I need a tad bit of an upgrade because it's a bit choppy. And yes, PCI-E slot it is. And btw, gesicht, I apritiate the thought but I was looking for a specific recomendation

If I were you I'd hitup the used section of Ebay for a 6600GT.

Oblivion?

Wow, I wonder if the system in my sig can handle it since you're able to do it with onboard video. What are your other specs?
