Yup, and pretty good ones if I may say.
AMD:
Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE Vapor-X 100284VXL Radeon HD 5750 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity
NVIDIA:
Newegg.com - EVGA 01G-P3-1450-TR GeForce GTS 450 (Fermi) 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Both are pretty solid cards all around (DirectX 11, very little power consumption, little heat generation [the Sapphire one has the best cooler of the two though]).

Then either one of the cards I posted previously will serve you well.
Just don't expect anything ground breaking.
