The GT240 seems to be within my price range, it looks ok. Only one
thing sticks out: it says in the description "DirectX 10.1" - I have
no specific wish for anything better but 10.1 was supported by ATI's
4xxx card, practically two generations ago - is GT240 that old?

Is it supported by common software like VLC (in X11)?
