Ummm... You maybe want to upgrade to PCI-E, but fastest is the x850xt. I really recommend moving to PCI-E depending on budget.

How much money do you expect me to burn upgrading to pci-e?

Depends on card what you want, and your processor socket. assuming that you have 939 socket processor and you want 7600gt it is aroung 300-400€

I don't think ATI has topped the
Gainward BLISS 7800GS+ Golden Sample
(it's a Nvidia 7900GT with 512Mb RAM)
It's runs BF2 in 1600*1200 with all high settings with fps 90-100.
It's a bit expensive though, the Nvidia 8800 doesn't cost much more but it's PCI-e.

Here's a link to 'How to buy a video card' that I made. It doesn't specify which are AGP or PCI-E though. But these are the best cards out there:

I said the fastest not the best necessarily.

I mean the socket cause if you want pci-e mobo you need one that fits your processor.

OK just go for 7800gs and forget getting pci-e. With your knowledge I wouldn't change my mobo.

I myself (16 years old) upgraded just a few days ago to PCI-E

AMD Athlon 3800+ (Am2)
K9N sli mobo
2x 512 MB G.E.I.L DDR2 PC6400 800mhz RAM
Xpert Vision 7600 GT 256mb
200GB Samsung HD
430 Watt PSU

And its pretty damn fast and can play on high with pretty decent FPS, need to upgrade to 2GB though for real optimal high graphics + performance, but its a pretty decent system and the total cost was about 550 euro's
