Graphics card
My 7600 GS works fine (4.6 graphics and 4.8 gaming) with an off-the-shelf HP Pavilion a1540n.

I'll second the recommendation for a 7600GS. It runs the | Aero Glass UI perfectly, plays full-screen DVDs flawlessly, and has decent | gaming capability. | | Some of them even have passive cooling which would work well for a Media | Center PC. And if that isn't enough they are cheap! I picked one up at | newegg.com for $112US and am very happy with it. | |
