I am putting together a new computer, and I have everything else I need (or on it's way in the mail) except for a video card. I've tried to keep costs down and I have been ordering parts over the last couple of months.

Now I need a video card. I don't want to spend more than $200 Canadian on one, but I want something that is the best for it's money, and will be good enough for some of the upcoming games (HL2, Doom III, etc)

I have AMD 2500+
Soltek SL-75FRN2-L mobo
512 MG DDR Ram
80 GB HDD
and other parts.

I've been looking around and this is the best one that I think is good value (Sale for $173 Cdn right now) and good for my expected needs:

SAPPHIRE RADEON 9600 PRO 128MB DDR DVI-I W/ TV OUT OEM

Any advice would be helpful, thanx in advance.
