As far as I know, the standard Radeon PCI (not the Radeon 7000) is 
better than the 7000 because it has better 3D performance. I heard that 
ATi crippled the 7000 to push sales of their more expensive cards, but 
the standard Radeon is actually better (and unfortunately, it's also 
been discontinued, so expect to pay a premium).

A standard Radeon PCI should be as good as a Radeon AGP, which is some 
pretty good performance. I have a digital audio G4 with an AGP Radeon 
and it's excellent. Not top-notch; I'm sure I could get something 
better, but it's up there. Expect to pay $150 or more for a standard 
Radeon, and you have to make extra sure it's not a Radeon 7000.
