Just wondering if GW will run well with my current video card (GeForce 5200fx) and I also want to know what other better PCI video cards there are since I dont have an AGP slot

It will work fine, the computer I am on right now has one (agp), and it works perfectly. I do not think you will need to look elsewhere for another card.

Here is a decent reference. You can look at www.newegg.com to see what is available. As you can see, the selection is weak for PCI cards, but models like the FX5500 are available in PCI.

The best models available via PCI are probably the Radeon 9250 and the GeForce FX5500. The FX5200 is also available in a PCI model.

The performance you might gain by going to the next level up for FX? Not likely to be big. You should be fine with that video card.
