Depends what your definition of inexpensive is.

All of those I listed 'should' be available within that price bracket, all will run the latest generation of games and give you a small amount of future-proofing.

The HD4850/70 mentioned below by NViz wont be.

Peronally I would stay away from the 38 series of ATi unless your budget is really stretched.

Have a look through the reviews on this site http://www.anandtech.com/ to help with your decision.

You'll need to search through the reviews.
