I currently have a NVidia GT220 (~10 mhash/s) which i can sell on ebay for ~$45-50 - if i sell it and get a ATI 4650 - i should get triple the hash. Is there a better card where i wouldnt have to spend any more money than what i make from the sale of the GT220?

30mh/s is still crappy for mining.

You should really wait and buy a decent mining card instead of something that gets 8x less hashing power. You've got to spend money to make money.
