If you can change to AGP, do.  Others have suggested what they consider 
reasonable price cards capable of doing compiz etc.  I don't need it, so I 
couldn't comment on that.  Nor do I need 3D at all, so I don't bother with 
the proprietary drivers.  It's all a matter of deciding what matters to you 
and how much you are prepared to spend to get it.
