When getting a “cheap” card, make sure you look for “Class 6” in the specs. Many will be Class 4 (kinda slow) or worse, Class 2 (agonizingly slow). As far as I know 8GB Class 6 cards are not available yet, so if you must have 8GB make sure it’s at least Class 4. Best bang for the buck is currently 4GB Class 6, which can be had for under $20 (at Newegg for example).
