I'm helping out a friend whose mom has an old PC that is showing symptoms that look like a dying video card. I'm trying to find a good cheap AGP card to try. Something in the $20-30 range sounds about right.

Looking on eBay, I see a lot of Radeon 9550 and Geforce FX 5500s in that price range that appear to be new old stock, but I don't remember anything about these old architectures. I just want something reliable that still has drivers available (I think she has WinXP). If anyone has any comments or suggestions, I would appreciate it.
 
For basic video output those should work fine. We still sell FX5200s at my work. They can't game by any means but are a decent cheap choice to get a pc displaying video again.
 
I have these 4 sale actually
PNY GeForce 4 TI 4600 128 mb limited edition used with aftermarket fan. AGP 2\4x
3dfx Voodoo 5 5500 AGP used (as is no cd) 32 mb
Apogee Nvidia 6800 GT 256 mb AGP used
name your price
 
Check the freebies section on FS/FT. Someone has an AGP card to give I'm sure.
