I have an old pentium 2.66 with a x4 speed agp slot on my mobo.
Previously ive had a ati radeon 9600 pro 256 mb, a ati radeon 9800 and currently
I am running a nividea geforce 7600 gs 512 mb ddr (reads as 1 gb)
I can run grid, fear 2, empire total war. on low to medium settings of course.

Go for any Agp card in your budget.

Get the HD 3850 for AGP 8X/4X. Your system is a bottle neck but Newegg has cards that will work provided you can power them. One caveat, the HD 3850's AGP have power plugs, so you have to have a PSU that can power them. I'm trying to do a mobo swap on my OEM HP so I can have an AGP slot on this old P4 but it's hard because of proprietary security on the mobo and Windows install. I'm getting a HD 3850 if I can get it to work though.
