So Im looking around for a new vid card and during the course of my research I figure out that I cant use any of the new PCI express cards. My MoBo only has pci and agp slots. I could get a new mobo but that would also mean new memory since most stuff is ddr2 now and likely a new processor.

Now since I dont really want to gut my rig right now I figure on just getting a nice pci or agp card to tide me over for a bit till I do want to do a complete rebuild.

Atm Im running a geforce 5700 ultra at 128m. I have a P4 2.4g cpu, asus mobo and 1750m of ddr ram and a 450w power supply. Can anyone suggest a nice replacement vid card? I want at least 256m on it.
