Graphics Card Help

I need a new Graphics Card, i'm looking at getting a 128MB one, Radeon or something it's called.

Anyway, I currently have 32MB Intergrated Graphics, someone told me I need a new motherboard, someone else said I can just disable it in the BIOS when I install the new card, it's also got to be PCI, as it looks like im minus a AGP slot?

Does this all make sense? Any help is appreciated...

Well the Radeon 9800 Pro is 128 MB and it's a PCI card. If you just put in the card in to your motherboard now it should, more then likely, override your IG on your board. So you have no problems at all. Just buy the one you're wanting (the ATI Radeon 9800 Pro is a great choice) and it's PCI so you'll have no problems.
