Hey bro sorry about not responding but I don't get much time to hit the forums any more. First off an nVidia chipset is pretty much a no brainer. Though for your needs and price range I would pick up a GeForce2 GTS. As for the Elsa it does have a daughtercard you could purchase seperately for it. Personally I would go with an Asus V700 pure. Now you may find it a bit of a challenge to find a GTS for this price but don't be shy about lerking in for sale or trade forums. As they can be had there for like under $150 now. Also you need to consider your needs. What resolution and color depth do you play games at? If 800x600 I would say just go pick up a GeForceMX board. Save a little cash and think about grabbing the new NV20 in 4 months or so. Also, make sure you have the latest VIA drivers etc as nVidia and VIA are notorious for the problematic combinations.
