The link you posted shows a motherboard with a 4x AGP slot. So, yes, you can get a better video card.

Most AGP video cards available should work. Just make sure they are 4x compatible.

My guess is that all three of your muvver boreds are the same!

If they have AGP slots you can add another video card. You will then need to disable the onboard graphics in bios and free up the ram that was used.
