  GeForce 7300 LE
  
  The 7300 LE ( LE stands for light edition ) is a scaled-down version of the 7300 GS. It has DDR memory, as opposed to GDDR2/GDDR3, and a slightly lower core clock speed (450 MHz vs. 550 MHz) according to Anandtech. It is only available in the PCI Express interface. With good performance/price, the 7300 LE serves as a budget video card, though most consider it too inferior for the relatively small difference in price from the GS version.

  Do you intend to use it for games? If yes, you might want to go for GEFORCE 7900GS( a bit more expensive, around $200-$350 more than GEFORCE 7300LE) Or GEFORCE 7600GT( Should be $150+ more expensive).
