i had the Geforce FX 5200 128 MB and i just upgraded to the Geforce FX 5500 256 MB for $ 50 CAN more...the performance is at least 3x better. Get the 5500!

OH ya! today I'm awake ;-).. I see it's in the title of this thread.



Honestly and I've been trying to bite my lip because it's going to stir up alot of people! but I've got to say it. If it's an Nvidia FX graphics card one is looking to buy then try and stick to the last couple of models out if possible because Nvidia had a bad couple of years which I call the FX years :-). b4 anyone starts to flame my ars I just ask you to research first and you'll see that many others agree :-)..

Thats a bit of a stretch

For that price you can damn near get any last generation card you want! (ok maybe not the 9800XT thats ridiculously expensive) but you can nail the 5900XTs, 9800Pro and if you're lucky you might (although i doubt it) be able to score a 6600

it shows the perfoamce comparison on the back of my box compared to the GeForce 5200FX 128mb (im guessing they show this so you buy the more expensive) BTW thats what i did :d
