I have a p4 2.8 gig with 3 gigs of ddr 667mhz ram and a pci bfg geforce 6200.I have a pci express x16 slot on my main board what would be a good video card to upgrade to(in the pci express slot).Looking to spend $50 to $75 on it
 
Search Newegg here:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2005650048%204026&name=%2450%20-%20%2475

This lists all the cards they have in the $50-75 price range.
There is several pages.
Do not pay more for a 1GB card.
The HD3850/HD4670 will be in budget but you might find 9600GT/GSO or HD3870 as well.
I would suggest the GDDR3 (check the specs carefully) HD4650 as your best choice.
Here they are in order:

You will need at least a 400W PSU for the 9600/HD3850/3870.
