I can go up to AGP 8X

Also something available at bestbuy would be great, I need it ASAP.
upgrade the PSU and go with ati 9800 pro about 3 -4 years old I have it in another system and it still kicks ***.Pricegrabber.com has it for $164...more then likely your MOBO is agp not pci express...and is your ram 3200 or 2700 you want the 3200 or ddr400 is the same always cheaper to upgrade then to buy all out new.
