Look for the FX5200 Ultra.

If all she's doing is web browsing and productivity, it doesn't make a whole
lot of difference. The 5200 is the newest. Same speed as the MX440
basically, but with DX9 support. The MX4000 is the slowest of the lot. If
she's doing any new 3D gaming, none of the above.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

for about the same $$ or a few bucks more, I'd go with the G4ti4600 or
4800 - much faster all around. If you need dx9, the FX5600 is a better
deal, or even FX5700/5800 which can be had for less than $90US for the
128MB version.
