I'm using coolbits. I can get my 5200 Ultra almost to a 5600 Ultra.

The only FX5200 type that's of any value whatsoever is the 128bit memory
version.....and 9 of every 10 of these cards are the 64bit version. You can
overclock them, but you still wind up with GeForce2 GTS level performance.
The 128bit version will perform better....like Geforce3 Ti level or Radeon
8500/9100 level.

1) List your card on E-bay.

2) Take the money from that purchase and buy another card.

That is exactly what I did and I couldn't be happier with the speed increase.

The jist of what everyone is saying is you made a very bad( probably
un-informed, no offence) choice for your gfx card. Chalk it up to a lesson
learned and do some research about the gfx card your planning to get next
time. One more thing, if your very lucky and slam some extra after-market
cooling on that lemon you might( just maybe, but probably not) get it up to
290-300/480-500. But it will have to have some really wicked cooling on it.

If you had managed to scrounge up the Ultra 128bit version of the 5200,
it'll do 10,000+ in 3Dmark01. I built a system for a friend, Barton 2500 @
3200, Nforce2, and against my recommendations, an MSI FX5200 that he thought
was a 128 bit card. Got benchmarks exactly like yours. My Geforce2 GTS Ultra
beat it by 900 on 3DMark01.

you should get in 3dmark03 about 1400-500 ans that without oc your
hardware and blowing up the special feature in it...

with these driver 53.03 plus the nforce 3.13 driver.

but your pc should be like 2600xp cpu + 512megs 333ddr with a nforce2
board
