i believe the only pci card that will give you acceleration is the 
radeon 7000? mac edition... i havent been able to find it for under 
$120 (quite a premium for the last pci graphics card supported under os 
x) thus the reason i continue to use my voodoo3. it doesnt stutter 
under finder use/graphics apps use in os x, though my processor is a 
bit beefier than yours, and that is probably what keeps the voodoo 
alive under x .
