Should I get PCI or AGP card? I have a kk266 with amd 1.33.Do I need to mess with jumpers or bios to set up? Thanks Dave.

I don't think they make a PCI RADEON, but even if they did, why not get AGP.

Actually, to answer your question directly, JUST GET AGP... PERIOD!!!

Eh? AGP is much much faster and specifically designed for video cards.

The only PCI Radeon they make is like the 32MB SDR model....

The only time you use PCI for a graphics card is if you don't have an AGP slot on your motherboard, or for a second graphics card.

Primary graphics card is always AGP if you can.

They do have PCI andAGP radeon allinwonder cards. I am considering PCI for my BX 133 raid if I can't conclusively determine that he AGP will work in its place. I think AGP should,but so far,ATI card in there now does not work. I want Radeon to bail me out.It has hardware video capture I want for running my vid cam for a web cam.

If you want a good performing card take a look at ati radeon le at Newegg.com $77 and free shipping .
Thats the most bang for the buck you can get.
