ok ive just read my mobo manual an it says i hav 5 pci slots and one agp x8 slot. i then looked at my system info and it said that my fx 5200 was in a pci slot so i guess that means i have to get the pci version.

by the way i have a am amd athlon 2800 + 2.08 ghz asrock mobo and my manual says there are 2 types k7s8x or k7s8xe which i have no ideas about . the only thing i am worried about no is will i have enough power to use it coz ive heard you need some internal power for top range cards.
 
Nope PCI-E is different from PCI, they don't make PCI cards anymore. You have an AGP 8x slot, you need the AGP version of the 6600GT. The 5200 you have now is a PCI so you aren't using the AGP slot, but you still have it and that's what most cards are. So the card you need is the 6600GT AGP.
