If you get a ati card you should get a 6770 or 5770. They are very affordable 100$ cards and ***** on many cards performance, they have great performance and can play pcsx2 in a heart beat smoothly for most games like the Kingdom Hearts series.

Doesn't matter that much if he's not building his new rig :/
Anyways just to let you know if you could squeeze about 200$ more into that 500$ then I can guarantee you can get an "AWESOME" gaming rig =D

5770/6770 have 76800 MB/sec bandwidth which should be enough for 2-3x scaling and not bad for the price.

2x. 3x is pushing it and in most games it would slow below full speed due to bandwith limits.
I'd consider 100GB/s as a rough mark for a good PCSX2 gpu.
