You're probably looking at PCI express cards, because the regular PCI bus is much older. You should be able to find PCI cards at your local electronics store but if not, visit and shop Newegg:

Its PCI because the computer i have now is pci-e and i have a gtforce 9400 gt and im fixing this one for my lil cousin.
 
alright i guess i'm confused, but if you're just looking for a regular PCI card to replace the onboard anything would do.
