need advice on PCI card
I only have intel integrated graphics so i need a video card. All I got is a PCI slot. Just need suggestions on the best pci card. Was thinking of the GeForce FX5200. Mainly for gaming, and like to keep price $150 and under. Thanks.

Ya the best video card for a PCI slot is the 256mb 128-bit Geforce FX.

The 256mb version is not worth the big price premium over the 128mb version.

Not much of anything really, I dont believe there are any games out that would utilize the extra 128mb, which i think is utilized for extra particle effects and such. Stick with the 128mb version, like glc said its not worth the price difference.
