I would go with something else. The Hercules look great, but they cost a lot. Somebody like Gainward, who also make great looking video cards, would be my choice, because their products have very high 2D quality. Gainward is also known for their overclockability, and they're affordable. The other option would be Leadtek, their video cards are rather plain, but their new line of Titantium video cards have outstanding 2D image quality, not a bad choice.
