BFG Released the last AGP card to be released which was the nvidia 7800GS. It's a bit pricey but it's the best for AGP.

X1950Pro is the king of AGP.
/EDIT: I've always hated Tomshardware for its benchmarks and inconsistant reviews. Other sites provide more accurate representations of how hardware your interested in buying will perform in your hands.

What are your thoughts on the Asus Nvidia 6800 Ultra?

Why because you have a good deal available on it? People sell them for around $60-70 here. It's a decent card, SM3 support although it's not gonna go above and beyond in that catagory.
/EDIT AGAIN: Just remember not to waste money on a shiny new card if the rest of your system can't keep up to begin with, I've experienced some of the worst bottlenecks with P4 northwoods.
