Yeah, literally anything. By "best" I assume you mean you want to smoke this engine. I'm pretty sure just about any card that a store would sell you today will kill HL2. I have an old 5750 that I was going to use as reference, because it maxed all settings and ran it at 100 frames, but it looks like Newegg doesn't even sell them anymore:

Even total budget cards will rip through the Source engine these days. Keep in mind it was released in 2004.

To ballpark it, NVidia.
