The FX 5200 is a huge POS. I had one in my old Dell Dimension 4600 and it sucked. I eventually replaced it with an ATI X700 Pro and have had zero issues since. My wife uses it to play games and it handles most of her stuff (Sims, Desperate Housewives, etc...). Point is you can get way better cards for about the same money. I wouldn't waste it on another 5200.


My current rig has 2 overclocked Nvidia 7900 GS cards in SLI. It's ok I guess
