Upgrade

I want to make an upgade and I was thinking in a P4 3.2 or Athlon 64 3.2. If I go with the P4 can I use my old video card (ATI 9800 pro AGP) into PCI Express 16x slot?

Frankly I like more the Athlon 64 but the mother board dosen't have the PCI Express slot that I think can be useful for later upgrades.

The board is a Chaintech NF3-250. Is is a good board? or Asus K8V

AGP is not PCI Express.  Won't work.  As for your other questions, not sure.

No, the AGP and PCI Express slots are not the same. You would need to get a new graphics card if you went with PCI Express.
