Well you're quite limited by the AGP slot, and I can only assume your power supply is miserable as well. What's your processor? Depending on what it is, it may not be worth spending money to upgrade. AGP cards are expensive for what you get.

My brother has AGP the best we could find was HD4670 OC. Upgraded a couple weeks ago.

He said a Pentium 3 gig, I assume he means a Pentium 3GHz, which would be a P4.

MoBo search seems to confirm your suspicion.

But I must say comment might still be valid on a P4. Netburst, 20/31 stages oh and heat.

And again, power supply issues. Yeah a 4670 would be an upgrade, but I doubt the gains would be worth the costs.
