I have an ASUS P4s8x motherboard and have purchased an ATI radeon X300
graphics card, the problem is that the new card is PCI express and doesn't
fit. Can anyone recommend a 256MB graphics card for my motherboard.
Thanks, Ritchie

It's so much easier to suggest solutions when you don't know too much about
the problem

This is something that you really should say what you want to do- or you can
get an overspecified card and spend more money than you need to. Or get a
card underspecified for your needs. And there is such a large range of
prices- budget?
Without this info any advice you get will be questionable.

Your mother borad dose not have PCI-Express, either send the graphics
card back, or get a mother board with PCI-Express.
