If it's to revive an older setup, then you may be looking at AGP 1.0 (1x/2x at 3.3V), which some modern cards will not support, or possibly even a PCI.

In case some smart alec suggests PCI Express, I'll mention that too, though putting a new PCI-E motherboard in with the lowest of the low graphics in PCI-E would be a very poor choice.
For PCI-E he will need a new cpu anyway as there only available for AMD64 and soc 754 semprons and lga755 intel chips
