I really want to upgrade my FX 5500 (its so crappy). I don't have a PCI-E slot, just AGP,and I don't really want to spend over 80 bucks, but I'm willing to pay 100 or so if I need to. Whats a good agp card for this price range? Also, I don't really want an ATI at all, NVidia is way better.

I have a 6600 GT that is probably a LOT better.

Not sure if you can find an AGP version around, I got lucky, I suppose.

For $80-100, I suggest getting a 7600 GS (example) like that other thread. IMO DX10 is useless at this price range. Anything that comes out that benefits from DX10 won't run on a card of this price.

I don't plan on playing any DX-10 games anyway, I doubt my computer could run em. I think I'll go ahead and get a 7600 GS.

DX10 is just a hair above useless at any price range.
