Video card

I just got a new 19 inch monitor (ViewSonic).

My video card only has 32 megs of ram, and, so I cannot get 24 bit depth
to work properly at higher resolutions.

Could someone offer some video card recommendations that could
be installed without much hassle on my machine with the following
specifications? Price is no object. Convenience is, however.

I have an 800mh Athlon machine with 780 megs of ram.

This is what X -version reports

XFree86 Version 4.0.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6400)
Release Date: 1 July 2000
Operating System: Linux 2.2.14 i686 [ELF]    

That last line is somewhat puzzling because uname -a reports:
     2.4.5-win4lin #3 Wed Jul 4 16:01:48 EDT 2001 i686 unknown


Thanks,
Joel
