nVidia GeForce FX 5200
Any comments about the nVidia GeForce FX 5200 card? Is it a good buy, or no?
How does it compare to ATI?

I've never managed to make it do that. One tech told me it was a compatibility issue with my system (an HP), so I replace the MB, CPU, & Power supply with **** hot new stuff... and the FX5200 still won't work. Took that one back and got another one... that one doesn't work either. Just freezes the system.

I wonder if it possibly has something to do with pallette snooping and default boot display? Just a quick thought... -- Wheaty... Gimme the ball... puhhllleeeeaaasssse gimme the ball!

I wasn't aware that video cards had slots, on them?

Video cards are either PCI, or AGP. And, no, I did not know what you
meant. You were way out, in left field, at least to me. - Wheat Muncher stood up, at show-n-tell, and said: Strontium put me in my place by writing I wasn't aware that video cards had slots, on them? - Oh for the love of pearl.... you know what I meant I should hope... the bus connection type- Does it require and AGP as well as a PCI? -- Strontium "Shortcuts are self-defeating.
