I don't know which of these 2 geforce cards is best for gaming and I was hoping someone could help me out. Is it the Geforce fx5700le 128mb AGP or Geforce 6200 8X 256 Mb VGA/DVI/HDTV/S-Video?
 
if you are asking the best card for gaming none of them is best for latest games in context to those two may be 6200 is better because it is latest than 5700 and advanced also
 
LOL! 6200 support SM 3.0 (vs SM 2.0 in 5700) but it has slow 64 bit memory and lower clocks, btw AGP version of 6200 a little slower than PCIe one. Really FX5700 is more powerful video!!!!!!

Update:
from futuremark website:

FX5700 - 9000-11000Pts in 3Dmark2001SE
6200 - 7000 - 9000 ( 9000 overclocked and 8 pipes)

If I remember what I saw earlier, the pixle fill rate was slower on the 6200, but everything else was faster. Personally, I'd go with another 6200(I had one previously) 3DMark isn't always a sure sign of the performace. Need For Speed Most Wanted was very playable at 640x480 with about medium settings, Race Driver 3 was fine at 800x600, Flat Out ran fine(yeah, I'm mostly a race fan)

I have no experience with the 5700, but I still feel the 6200 would be better over all. Either way, there's not going to be a huge difference with either card.

You cant rely on those scores, since the hardware was most likely different.

Take a look here: http://www.gpureview.com/show_cards.php?card1=167&card2=192

The 6200 is better in every aspect.
