I have an old PC that had a nVidia 8800 GTX 768 MB DDR2. It is about 4.5 years old and the card bit the bucket a couple of months ago. The computer, while old, is still pretty darn good. I was using it as my kids computer so they could play Plants vs Zombies or other kid like games.

I don't need a very high end video card anymore so I'm wondering what people would recommend to get for this older PC?

The PC is a Dell XPS 720, and the video card that Dell recommends to replace it is actually a Small Form Factor card. I'm sure I can get a better card for a slightly cheaper price.
