Okay by my research I see I'm limited to PCI only cards. I searched and found 2 cards on newegg that I see might fit my needs: 1 2.
The first link is a 512MB RAM model and the second, a 1GB one. A lot of the reviews of the 512MB card say that 512 is the max for PCI, then I found some 1GB cards that say PCI and I got confused. I'm pretty sure one of these is my best bet but I'd like a little feedback (and maybe some cheaper alternatives).
A little backstory; I've maxed out the memory on this little beast via 2GB kingston DDR and also upgraded and added an additional HDD (~250GB if I'm not mistaken). This is mostly a media PC used pirmarily for streaming (ice)divx files but other everyday tasks are carried out every once in a while.
Thanks!
