If your primary purpose is animation only..then i suggest you look out for Quadro cards..! If you want..i can give u the details regarding the appropriate card. Depends up to you.
On the other side,if you want to stick with the Geforce series,then do look out for 6600 vanilla with 256MB of VRam!
Or if you want better in short terms..then ask your dealer about the plushed version of 6600 with DDR2 ram chips. This card is just awesome,though you might not get the AGP version so easily...now.

i suggest geforce 7950 GX2,and you should also change your hardware to semthing like:
2gb ddr-800mhz
core2duo e6600
asus p5w dh
if you can afford software like 3ds max,then you can obviously get this kind of hardware...

If your primary purpose is just for animation then you should go for nvidia 6200 but i'll recommend you should atleast buy nvidia 6600.

Mayanksharma is right. None of the grphics card such as NVIDIA or ATI are for animation purposes. Quadro cards are tailored for this kind of jobs. NVIDIA and ATI cards are gaming cards. If you are sure you want the card for animation then i will suggest to get Quadro cards.
