You are stuck with a PCI (not PCIe) video card, as the computer has no AGP slot. Something like an FX5700LE will be as good as it gets.

so any of http://cnet.search.com/search?chkpt=...700LE&tag=srch is going to work?

Any of those that say 'AGP' will not work. For those that APG or PCI isn't listed, check them out but make sure it doesn't say AGP. I don't think any will come in 256MB though. Any thing from this list will work (not all are 5700s) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...ubmit=Property
