Video Card selection

(OP)
I use Solid Works 2000 at work (& will upgrade soon to SW 2001). I also use it at home. I am in the process of requesting specs for my next workstation. My workstation will then be repeated (if all goes well) for other users. My main hesitation is the video card. I've done some research and seem to be leaning toward either:
   1)Oxygen GVX-1
   2)GeForce2 Ultra

I do some rather large files (25+ Meg) with some complex surface shapes resulting in huge feature trees. Any advice on selecting the best preforming card would be welcome! Please only experienced Solid Works users need reply -- no sales or marketing people!!!
