VisionTek - ATI RADEON HD 4350 512MB DDR2 PCI Express Graphics Card

or

NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430

Does anyone know a way that I could tell the difference?

They both are terrible. Go with a 4850 if you are looking for a Graphics card that is both good and cheap.

I only have about $70-80. :\
And $50 of it is on giftcards to BestBuy.
Which is the issue, my mom doesn't like spending money online.

IDK about the second, but the first isn't that great. It's a semi-high-end, I think, but it would be really low on the high-end spectrum of graphics card (i.e. you can play new games on low settings). Umm, there's a site that compares each graphics card. It gives a percentile score for each - just pick the one with the higher score.
I'm using a 4650. The 4350 isn't listed on the site, but based on the versions that are listed, it would rank at ~15%, whereas the 4650 is at just over 50% on the awesome scale.
Checking the GeForce, I think it ranks at 4%, lol, so go with the former. (That is, "GeForce Go" by the same model name ranks at 4%; couldn't tell if they were the same entirely.)
