Again, it's older technology so you will never be getting a good price from NCIX or any retail store unless it's a clearance old part. Old computer parts always will cost more because there is low supply of them so it's hard to find a retail store that stocks such things (but they are out there if you look). But on ebay...

Here you go, from Burnaby BC.

$75, ULi chipset so it has both PCI-E and AGP. You can supposedly also upgrade to AM2 socket CPUs but I don't know if the expansion card was ever released.

Or a little more expensive but definetely the bigger brand name, reliable and supported.

$125 from Montreal
