My wife has a MSI KM2M Combo-L mobo, and currently is running her old Geforce4 MX440 64MB card on it. I would like to get a budget card for her. Since she is not the 3d junkie that I am, she does not need a high end card to run all the fancy Doom 3 and Half Life 2 type games out there, just something that will play Guild Wars with good detail levels. However, there is a problem.

The AGP slot on the board is 2x/4x, AGP 2.0 compliant. I am uncertain what the voltage on the slot is, as either I cannot find it in the manual, or I don't know what to look for. The card I am look at is this -

Or some flavor thereof. Will this card run ok on her board? If not, I guess I could go with the PCI version of the card (Ugh) but is there anything else you can suggest?
