Perhaps something like an ATi 9800 Pro would suit your needs, with 256MB of video RAM it will play most games very well. Normally any AGP card will go into an AGP x4 slot, just make sure you have the same AGP version as the card you buy.

I think if you go for a really nice card like a 7800GT then AGP x4 your CPU/RAM will not do it justice, it would be like putting a diamond into a copper ring, for the same reason i wouldn't buy something like that myself.

If as you say budget is not a problem, then upgrading to PCI-e might be a good move, i recommend socket 939 AMD CPU, something like an Athlon 64 3200/3500 would do fine, or better yet, an Opteron from the 1 series.

If you do decide to upgrade to PCI-e (you will get a much better PCI-e card for your money than the AGP counterpart), then do some research and make informed decisions on what to buy. You may want to go for an SLi motherboard so you will have the option of a second card in future. Some SLi motherboard (infact alot of them) will only give you PCI-e x8 on each slot in SLi mode, so if you want the full bandwidth on each slot you will need something like an ASUS True x16 SLi While this isn't really important, it will give you alot more to work with in the future, they are more expensive, but the motherboard will be the most important part of the PC.

Anyway, if you do decide to stick with your current PC, then i would suggest you go for a less expensive AGP card and add some more RAM, maybe another 512MB, you can always use it later on in a new 939 system for example.

If you really want to stick with nvidia then i suggest something from the 6 series, perhaps a 6600. If you get a really good card without upgading the rest of the system then i really think the card will struggle, so don't go for high end.
