Looking for video card

I haven't messed around with my computer in awhile, and I want to upgrade my video card in my PC. it has a intel 3.0e and 1 gig of pc3200 ddr mem. I have an agp 8x slot in mine and see alot of cards out there but dont even know what would work with what I have in my machine. want to know what would be the best upgade for the money. saw a nice looking 7800 GS OC by EVGA, but dont even know if that would work with my computer seeing as how it has some GDDR3 memery. My motherboard dosn't work with that I think?
 
oh no, that GDDR3 is what the video card memory is, not something that is required for ur computer to have. Your computer will be fine with that card. As it is probably the best card for the AGP slot.
 
It will work just fine, though you'd want a juicy PSU for that thing(450W+; at least 15A on the +12V rail). A lot of people on the EVGA and XFX forums have reported a lot of black screens and crashes with lesser / cheap PSUs.
