Don't think I can get one with PCI, & the motherboard has no AGP socket.

A quick search on NewEgg shows 8 different FX5200 cards for PCI, at least half of them under $60. This one is even fanless: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814140027

Thanks tjc, I looked at some European suppliers, prices are a little higher, lower shipping costs + lack of import duty would even it out.
Looks like the FX5200 has a hardware Mpeg-2 decoder, will this benefit mythtv operation, maybe lower the CPU load when playing DVD's?
I think most of the FX5200 cards are S-VHS out, which is fine.
I'm almost certain the vga port can be made to output interlaced if I wanted to use it this way. Looks like I can get a low profile bracket, will need this, I have a small case.
