buy a g4 mx 440 64mb mate ... far superior card to the fx5200's

and cheaper

Myztik. Please take my word on this, PLEASE.

DO NOT buy that card, I BEG YOU. Me and a buddy made the mistake, that cards performance is WORSE than the GF4 MX440!!!!

And I know, cause I've had BOTH cards... and my buddy told me his GF4 MX440 OUTPERFORMED his FX5600.

I BEG YOU not to make the same mistake man.

Get a MSI GF4 Ti4200 8X AGP 128MB (SAME PRICE!!!!! $135) at www.googlegear.com, or somewhere else that you can find.

Take my advice man, the TI4200 is FAR superior to that card, and can be OC'ed to HELL!!!

does dx 9 support and cine fx engine make a difference ??

only when games start supporting dx9 then it would. but still avoid the fx 5200 peformance would be so bad youd kick yourself for buing it.i did just for trying the fx 5600 and that were quite slow.so try to imagine the 5200 is much slower tha 5600!!!!

I owned Ennyah 5200FX and is fine for the performance in gaming. myztik19, if you think you want to go for the newer technology than go for it. or else go for the GF4 mX.

You are the idoit who post this on the thread i have ever read. FX5600 is SLOWER than GF4 MX440? Than you mean it has a same performance like GF2/3? Maybe your buddy brought the card with problem or something pal. No one will ever believe this kind of stupid word you mention here. Unless, you say GF4 ti4200 8x, than i hardly believe that.

Note: myztik19, go to read some of the reviews thread on GFfX card. it will help you if you want to decide going for GF4mx or FX card.
