FX5200 reviews needed.
Hi I read this news group quite a bit and I know people seem to enjoy
putting down the MX cards and the FX5200. I've been using a MX440se 64MB DDR PCI on a 1.2 GHz celeron, 256Mb sdram. I'm upgrading very soon(maybe even this morning) to an AMD 2600+ (333 FSB) 512MB 2700 DDR ram. On an asus motherboard. ( The choice of motherboards was based on comments I read on this newsgroup). For a short while I'll be using my present video card(mx440se PCI). I found this card worked great in my system, but with the new upgrade I want to take advantage of the 8xAGP etc. The best I can do for a video card will be the FX5200. (the video cards around here are still priced at about $129.99 +Tx Canadian for a FX5200 or MX440 8xAGP.) I've looked on a few web sites and the Canadian stores online are still charging around $109.99 when the tax and shipping is added its about the same. I guess after all this my question is does anybody using a FX5200 want to give it a good review. Or know were I can find one on the web (besides Toms hardware which I've read and reread.) And or does anyone know a good Canadian online store with good prices and a good reputation. I'd consider a more expensive card but the jump from say a FX5200 to a FX5600 is huge and something I might have to put off till later. I'm really not interested in the Ti series at all. Sorry for being so long winded. Have a great day and thanks for any help, thoughts or suggestions. |
