"Best" is probably dependent on your requirements and applications.
But if you're interested in cards that are aimed at OpenGL acceleration,
there's a nice article in "Computer Graphics World" October '97,
pp 65-72 entitled "3D Power" by Barbara Robertson.  Their web site
is www.cgw.com, though I don't know if the article is on line.

They review products from 3DLabs, Dynamic Pictures, Evans & Sutherland,
Intergraph and Mitsubishi.
