You obviously want the card to run in an 8x slot, since all the latest-generation cards are designed for that, but most if not all will run in a 4x slot. They just won't work as well as they're designed to (but it won't be a huge difference, and regardless you'll still see a huge increase over what you're currently running).
See my post up top for buying recommendations. I simply cannot, in good conscious, recommend a 5200. I have no comments on the 9200, as I have minimal experience with ATi (thankfully). I strongly recommend at least a 5700, although a 5600 may work as well.
