when i upgraded my board, i didnt know it didnt support my vid card, now forced to upgrade. well it sorta supports it, runs it at 1x agp speed
im thinking of getting the GigaByte Nvidia Geforce 7100GS PCIe, right now i have a GigaBye Nvidia Geforce 6600GT agp
clock speeds on my 6600 are better and has more pipelines

7100gs

6600gt

the 6600 has twice as many pipelines, is the 7100 still better?

Whats you budjet, I'll give you the best card I can find to suit it. If you have PCI-e don't go back to AGP.
