Are you looking for PCI, AGP, or PCI-E?

also looking if this is any good
AGP X800XT Platinum Edition?

The x800/x850 line are great performers and are usually reasonably priced. The only thing they lack is SM3, which may limit the number of game titles you can play.

so i would be better going with an x1650?

Noooo! Do not get the x1600PRO/x1650PRO, they are some of the worst performing cards. You would be much, much better off with a 7600GS/GT.

Those are older then the X and X1K series, and arent very good for todays games.

I would recommend with the x800/x850 series, or the 7600 series if your on a budget.
