Cheapy Upgrade Question

At work I use a Dell Dimension PC, and it came with an AGP FX5200 gfx card.

Now I know its rubbish, but the PC was only ever intended for general office use. The picture quality is also garbage on my 19" LCD.

I am starting to do a lot of Quark/Adobe/Photoshop work and I have asked if I can upgrade the card to something a bit better, but on a budget.

So, What AGP card?

Is anything in the less than £50 bracket any good? Passive cooling is preferred but good image quality is essential. It only needs to last for 6 - 9 months before all the PC`s are due to be upgraded. Hence the cheap budget.

:)
 
A cheap 7600GT would be a HUGE upgrade and very much within budget.

That said, a PCI Voodoo 2 might also be an upgrade from an FX5200..they were awful cards :p
