Fx5200

[Mr. Elmo]

my lcd monitor can only go up to 1024x768 so every look good unless you're doing to make me buy your card :music1: :music1: : : oh, sorry just trying the smilies.....btw, i found this while looking around....is it a good deal or should a 5200 fit me fine

Abu, when you grow up do you want to enter the fast growing, very glamorous field of used car sales?
You'd be very good at it....

um... 119? it's not a bad deal. but if ur willing to spend that much, a 5600 is not a very good card. at least get a 9600 non pro for that much.

nvm about the pm thing. jsut do it here. easier.

but its a 5600 ultra at 400/800 speed. so to throw my budget out the window.........*deep breath* 1, 2, 3 *exhale* okay now, so your 5200 plays pretty much all the game at decent setting at 1024x768 and get playable fps? im not a fps freak so anything above 25-30 is playable for me.

that's a guarrantee. it plays ut2k3 at at least 50-70 fps with everything on high. it plays everything else that came out perfectly fine. didn't try deus x 2 yet on that card, cuz i just got it. but everything will run just fine, if ur not looking for the best card in the world. Ebay has some used ones for $55. mine's $45-50.

when you were playing halo, which pixil shader did u use? 1.1 or 2.0?? On ut, were those fps from battles seen or just walking around? oh and if i buy the card, is it like oem? or does it have the cables too.

my mx440 (its agp though) runs halo on 1024x768 with everything on HIGH at a good framerate. the game isnt that demanding imo. the only reason urs is so slow must be becuase its the pci version i guess. Im sure the 5200 will run halo perfectly flawless for sure.

i believe it's 2.0. but i havn't used that card in a while. i'm sure though everything was set on high, so pixel shader was prob 2.0
