I think any graphics card will produce good image quality, but AMD claims that they have the best image quality AMD Image Quality Beats Competition By Up To 87 Percent - Legit Reviews
Edit: I wouldn't suggest a directx 11 card just for a htpc, so a 4450 or a 4350 should be good enough for you, nVidia's 9400gt, which I'm using for my htpc works plenty well as well.
