did you have PCI or AGP card? AFAIK all FX5000 from nvidia are based on AGP. btw the pc only showing 4x AGP for the card since your mobo only support up to 4x even if your card able to support up to 8x. also your mobo won't be able to use 8800GT since your mobo does not have PCI-E x16 slot.

the performance will surely drop when there are more things to be rendered on the screen. if you want better performance you'll have to upgrade you gpu. the best AGP card you can get is HD4670.
