Any high-end graphics card would be find. If possible stick with NVidia.

A graphics card doesn't really matter that much for the actual rigging progress. Optimizing your scene and working with a low sub'd display level will help playback and scene performance.

LW doesn’t use graphics cards as such. On small files my 8600 is just as good as my GTX280.

If you need a new card a GTX460 seems about the best price point/performance option.
