Are you limited to a PCI card?  'cause man, you should at least have a 
6600 now, you could get away with a 6200.  
A 6200 costs £60 a 6600, £80.
Though you struggling by with 512 Mb of RAM and a FX5200 has me waxing 
nostalgic... ah, so many memories of EvilBill's computer woes.
I'm running an unlocked 6800 right now, but the rest of my system is 
pretty much two years old.
