I'm souping up an older PC, but the motherboard, a P2B-S , only supports AGP 2x 3.3V. The best card I can find that is compatible only has 32MB of memory. However, I can get a PCI video card with 256 MB of memory. Which would I be better off with?
Don't look too much into the memory, the graphic chip itself is usually more important factor.
PCI limitations are 100mbit/s I think, can't go faster than that.
AGP 2x is a lot faster.
But if your AGP card chip is poor, it wouldn't have much use for AGP speeds.
So what are the graphic cards you were thinking ?

a pci version of the 6200 has been released, that should be decent as a pci card. but there are many options for AGP cards.
