The nVidia Geforce 8500GT, 7300GT and 6200, plus the ATI Radeon X1300 (and possibly some other ATI cards) are all available in PCI versions. They are rare though. If there is any speed difference, the 8500GT should be fastest.
You have to keep in mind that the PCI-Express versions of all of those cards are pretty low-end anyway, and fitting them with the older PCI seems to effectively cut their speed by half compared to the PCI-E versions. So while they seem to meet the minimum requirements as they have been posted at the moment, the game may run really slowly.

Yes, that PC is well over the minimum requirements, should run the game very well.
