BFG Asylum GeForce FX 5200

What do you guys think of this card? I would only use it for Unreal Tournament 2003 and it supports DirectX 9.0 already.

An mx card is faster.

It will play UT2003, but there are definetly more powerful video cards. Look at the FX 5600 or the Radeon 9500. They cost a bit more, but they are much more powerful and will last for future games much better then the 5200.

Cool thanks, I'm planning to get tha Radeon 9500 Pro instead. I looked at the benchmarks and the FX 5200 is slightly behind a Radeon 9000!

You will not be disapointed in the 9500.

Yeah, the FX 5200 is really just the MX card of the new series. I think the Ti 4200 even performs a bit better than it.
