ti4200 vs 5200
Hi all
quick question: which card would be better in my partner's p4 2.8ghz out of a ti4200 or a 5200? I know the 5200's got a bad rep but it is newer and supports dx9... any thoughts gratefully received thanks Richard |

Of the two, a Geforce Ti4200 is superior, unless he or she has one of the extremely rare FX5200 Ultra cards, in which case it's actually a bit better. An standard 128bit FX5200 is a slower card with DX9 support tossed in as a buying incentive for the less informed about gaming cards at the time. ABout 20% slower overall that a standart Ti4200 depending on the bench and test.The 64bit FX5200 is basically just a 2D card.

ti4200 vs 5200
"John Edmister" wrote in message ... My question is, why would you want to use either? When you can get modern cards that would blow both away? I have a cupboard full of everything from 4200TI's, 9600's up to 5600's. I had an x800GTO but put it in a system I build for someone about 1 1/2 years ago. I cant bring myself to throw them away, but, alls they do is collect dust lol. just doing a quick search on newegg, I found this card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150174 This one is $40 cheaper right now, without mailing in and waiting 3 months for a maybe rebate, and is faster to boot. In fact, it's the fastest AGP card out there. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102071 Comparison below http://www.techspot.com/review/28-ra...eforce-7900gs/ |

or a 5200? I know the 5200's got a bad rep but it is newer and Why not a 7600GS. Works very well. I changed from a Ti4200 to 7600GS. What a change! -- Lars-Erik - http://www.osterud.name - ICQ 7297605 WinXP, Asus P4PE, 2.53GHz, 1GB, MSI 7600GS, SB-Live |
