| videos in webpages are probably not very clear because of the quality of those videos and little to do with your video card.
You will notice a difference between a TNT 32MB and a Radeon 9700 PRO with 128MB DDR, but unless you are a gamer, there are lesser VC you would be happy with. I have a ATi Radeon 9000 and would consider myself satisfied.
Write your questions down on the back of a $20 dollar bill and send them to me.

| Depends on your needs and not your wants unless you can really afford it.  |

| ...and I might add, IMO your motherboard/processor/ram configuration are all factors here too if you're talking serious performance (that is, taking advantage of the video card's full capabilities)!

| The 9600 Pro is better than the NVidia offering at that price - but if you can then try to get either a 9500 Pro or a 9700 Non-Pro (But these are almost extinct!).
CanadaDude also gave some good advise, if the rest of you PC is not very fast then you will not benefit as much.
