I have a MSI 865G Neo2-PS motherboard, it has a AGP slot on it.

Will a Sapphire HD 2600 XT work on it?

if not, can someone direct me to an up to date graphics card, if my motherboard hasn't out-dated that much.

Thanks.

If it has an AGP slot then any AGP 8X card will work, provided your PSU can handle the added load. The HD2600XT is currently the best "bang for buck" AGP card. Make sure to get a card with GDDR3 memory, not the slower GDDR2.
