That depends or whether or not your a gamer..if you are a gamer that is a very bad graphics card..but if you just use that computer to surf the net you should be fine.

It will play Price of Persia: The Two Thrones, slowly. That's an old card. You'd have done better with a 9700pro or similar offering from ATI. ATI cards of that generation handily beat Nvidia cards of the same generation.

THanks guys for telling me i wich i was signed up before buying it
and yeah after checking online the 9500 is to much to pay for 124
and there is another question how slow will prince of persia the two thrones be i mean i bought this card for the game and that friend that i told u about said it will work fine and that that card is fine for playing the game

and thanks again :wink:

becuse the GeForce FX 5200 is way better than the ATi 9200 ( i think :roll: )

Prince of persia 3 is one heavy game, w/ an FX5500 in order for you to play on a decent frame rates you must disable all the graphics enhancement settings as possible in short set it to low.
