PCIe? You could probably get by with about a 220...

Yeppers there is such a thing as a workstation card (http://www.amd.com/us/products/workstation/graphics/Pages/workstation-graphics.aspx). They are optimized video cards for CAD systems & Graphic Stations. So if she does not have that kind of system then any decent card will work. Just make sure you match expansion slot type ie.. PCI, PCIe, AGP, etc...
