My PC Configuration is as follows:
AMD Athlon 64
ASUS K8S-MX (On-Board Graphics)
512 MB DDR1 400 mhz
Vista and Ubuntu OS.

I am thinking of upgrading my system. I have already decided for 1 gb ram.
I have a problem with deciding the graphics card. (on-board sux

)
Since i am not a gamer, and i do not have heavy graphics applications, what graphics card will be suitable for me?
I am thinking of NVidia's 6 series. Please suggest me.

My budget for graphics card is not more than 2.5k.
