Mac Video Cards

I've got a Powermac G3 tower here, and its got a ati rage 128 with a 66MHz pci slot. What are my options of video cards to get because I want to still be able to run it and I just took out another 256mb of ram out of my other mac which was having problems with the screen. Could I just get a simple PCI video card, or do I need a special one? :shrug:

No you need a Mac specific video card for PPC machines.

Dang, any kinda recomendations for one... Want it to be cheap but better than my current one...

I think used cards on eBay might be the only reasonable option. Radeon 9000 series would probably be the highest you could go.
