a friend of mine is goin to canada and needed gas money and was trying to sell his computer that got a virus for $20 (parts). I saw that he had a nVIDIA GeForce 4 MX4(NV17) video card. I offered him $10 for the video card and he accepted. Now my noob question is this. Which card is better? my nVIDIA GeForce 6100 pcie or the one I bought off of him?

GeForce 6100 series chip specifications
Both the 6100 and 6150 support Shader Model 3.0 and DirectX 9.0c. The 6150 also features support for High-Definition video playback, PureVideo Processing, DVI, and video-out while the 6100 does not.
[edit]
GeForce 6100
* Core Clock: 425 MHz
* Pixel Pipelines: 2
* Vertex Processors: 1
* Memory: Usually 32/64/128MiB shared DDR400

GeForce 6150
* Core Clock: 475 MHz
* Pixel Pipelines: 2
* Vertex Processors: 1
* Memory: Usually 32/64/128MiB shared DDR400
Currently the boards are slated to be available in three different varieties - the GeForce 6100 with 410 southbridge geared toward low-end machines, the GeForce 6100 with 430 southbridge for more mainstream PCs, and the GeForce 6150 with 430 southbridge for multimedia PCs. Initially, a rumor circulated that the 6150/430 pairing was recalled due to ActiveArmor and "data corruption" problems, but this was refuted by NVIDIA. The GeForce 6100 series is available in AMD socket 754, 939 and AM2 variants.

Chipset Core Core Speed
(MHz) Memory Speed

MX420 (Geforce 4 MX 4x AGP) NV17 250 166 (128-bit)
MX440SE (Geforce 4 MX 8x AGP) NV18 250 333 (64/128-bit)
The 6100 series supports directx 9.0 where as Geforce 4 MX only support 8.0c. The 6100 has better core/memory clock speed and generally better memory interface (128 bit > 64 bit). But due to only 2 pixel pipelines.

That's such a nooby question but no offense i was also a noob 
so, you did mistake by buying it off from your friend since you have an AGP slot not an PCI slot for your board, but wait yet it's not a bad deal, try to sell to someone else at a good price may be you will get more than 10$.. well i am not sure but it's good to try ;-)
