Geforce FX 5200 help

[startx]

Im planning to buy and upgrade my system, im having a Geforce 3 ti200 64mb and ATi Radeon 9000 128ddr... Is it worth to buy a Geforce FX 5200 (non ultra), will it run Warcraft or other basic game with Good FPS? such as Flight sim or Counter strike or Warcraft.... please give such info thanks

The Geforce 5200 non-ultra isn't a very good choice and is slower than the radeon 8500, 9000, or 9100.

Pick up one of those Ati cards if you can...

and even to 440 MX

Yes, the Radeon's are far superior to the Geforce 420, 440, and 460 MX because of their DirectX 8 hardware support.

What's your budget?

Avoid the geForce FX line at all cost.

Dear Linson Chan,

The GeForce FX5200 is much faster than GeForce 3 Ti200.

They're just trying to grab your money. AFAIK GF3 is better than the GF4 mx series and the 5200 performs equal and sometimes even lower than the 440MX so i dont see why the 5200 can be "much faster" than the GF3 really. If you really want an upgrade look for something like the 9500pro or the Ti4200-8x

Yeah, the FX5200 should be about the same speed as a GeF3 Ti200 (rough estimate) without the AA/AF turned on. It will be faster with AA/AF turned on, but that will cause a considerable performance hit regardless (I doubt you want to run your current games slower than you currently are!).

A Radeon 9500 Pro would be an excellent upgrade, but a GeF4 Ti4200 would also give you measurable improvement (but only worth it if you get a really good deal on the card).

Where does good judgement come from? Experience. Where does experience come from? Bad judgement.

I would rather have a Ti200....
