DX 9 is backward compatible next to DX 8 cards. So the only issue you will hold is you will be lacking some of the bells and whistle that DX 9 offers.



In other words, it will not look as righteous as a DX9 card, but it will run.



What games are you planning on playing on it?
Get an AGP card if you can, PCI is older technology
That card is pretty outdated.

Either approach, all Direct X version are reverse compatible, meaning that DirectX 9 will work basically fine with a DirectX8 card. You shouldn't enjoy any issues using it.
The FX 5200 is really a DX8 card as its processor is a mix of DX8 and DX9 parts making DX9 a slide show compared to its DX8 performance though it is better supported than the 9250 but both of them are relatively slow and are unsuitable for current games better squirrel away some money for a new system base on PCI-E or at least AGP.
