If you want excellent PCI-E/PCI-E performance and cost isn't a concern, get
yourself an nvidia nforce based SLI-capable motherboard, like the Asus
A8N-SLI or the socket AM2 Asus M2N-SLI.  We have used those two extensively
for 2-user high end gaming systems.  Paired with a dual-core CPU you can
play games like Quake4 head to head with good frame rates depending on the
video cards.

However, if all you need is good 2D performance, AGP/PCI or PCI-E/PCI video
should be just fine as long as you use all nvidia cards with the nvidia
driver.  Just pick up an MX4000 PCI card, the video overlay works just fine
on all cards.
