Would anyone know of any decent video cards available for the LC PDS slot in the Performa 6300CD?

There were very few ever made as the market for such an item was small back in the day.

Guide to LC PDS Video Cards

Low end mac has listed a few options but I do not see them being any better than the existing video system on the 6300CD. If you want better video, I assume you would have to look at another system.

Your best bet is probably to install a 6360, 6400 or 6500 logic board, which themselves have better video, and then optionally a PCI video card for even better. IIRC you will need the matching backplane for each logic board, and possibly the matching power supply, or a mod for 3.3V power. The PCC hacking pages (still available only on archive.org) will offer some more information.
