I have a Compaq Model# SR1520NX 3100+ AMD Sempron Processor, It has multipul
PCI Slots but also has the One AGP slot, I have a new G-Force NVidia FX
5200PCI Video Card, will this work, or should I return it and get the Nividia
4MX 44 with AGP 8x

AGP is faster, if you have one I would use it.

AGP slots run at twice the speed of PCI slots so an AGP card should
give you better video performance than a PCI one.

Good luck
