Hi all,
I have a intel DG41TY mobo
Intel C2Q Q8200
and a cheap PSU(will also buy this),thinking of buying a cooler master 600W.

I am looking for a Mid high range video card for a maximum 150US$
and also I have this monitor-

this has a analog connector.
will this be a problem?

I am thinking of getting a nvidia 9800GT
but will that support my mobo??

and what about ATI cards?are they any good?

The 9800GT is good as is a HD4850 ATI card or if you can find one the HD4770.
Watch the model of the Coolermaster PSU Real Power Pro is the good model.

what do you think of the analog connector of my monitor??
will it be a problem with these cards to run using the dvi to vga converter??

No that won't be an issue.
