I'm talking about budget cards as well. You can get an HD4650 but I wouldn't unless you can find a DDR3 version which is nearly impossible new. The DDR2 version is on par with a 9500GT which was mediocre when it came out years ago. The 9600 GSO is a reasonable choice but it depends highly on what version it is and you say it's out of stock.
