You can use a cheap slow video card, but nothing very good for games. You can get a very good boost over the onboard video though, but don't expect miracles here especially with a P4.

This Radeon 4350 may run OK in the system with that power supply http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127613, but it's a bit touchy.

If you want to not risk it not working, a geforce 210 is a very very low power card although not very fast http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130602
