Which Graphics Card is Better?

[Guest]

I have two old graphics card and i have heard that on is better than the other and the other way around. here they are: NVIDIA Quadro4 380 XGL and GeForce FX 5200. the geforce supports aero in windows vista while the other installs but has no aero. i wonder which one is better.

the geforce card is directX9 where as the quadro is directX7, the reason for aero.

for general stuff the geforce would be more up to date.

Holy crap those are old cards. The FX 5200 was a $75 card nearly ten years ago (I bought one). Even the integrated graphics on any modern processor or board is going to blow that thing out of the water.
