Well, I took "G4000PRO" from the "PWA-G4000PRO/GRAPHIC CARD" you got off
the card.

Part list for 7AP140 says it's a P/N 182757-001: AGP graphics card - Nvidia
M64 Pro, 16MB (4X AGP)
Tough luck. Only worth 59 bucks.

It doesn't really matter. The way these things generally work is the base
board, indicated by the PWA "G4000PRO", is the same for various versions
that have optional parts either installed, or not, for whether there's, for
example, TV Out, or not.

If you compare the 182758-001 and 182757-001 pictures you can see the empty
PCB holes on the 182757-001 where the TV out connector would go and the
assembly would obviously need the other I/O end plate (which is why they're
different part numbers but the base board, and it's part number, is the same).
At any rate, the specific system model you gave, 7AP140, says it's the
182757-001 and that part says it's 4x (they all do) and you can compare
your board to the pictures.
