Hi guys,

I have a quick question. My motherboard has a AGP slot (4X/2X-AGP 2.0 compliant). I currently have a GeForce 2 Ti graphics card.

I recently got a ASUS V9520-X/TD graphics adapter nVidia GeForce FX 5200 128 MB card from a friend.

Which graphics card is better? Should I put the new ASUS one in and take out the Geforce2 Ti? I play games occasionally, I don't know if that makes any difference. My motherboard only supports AGP 4x, so I guess the AGP 8x card might not work?

Here are the specs I was able to find on the internet, but I can't figure out which one is better. The only thing I can say is the GeForce2 Ti has a fan, and the ASUS one doesn't..

yeah, i do agree these cards are not the greatest, but it's what I have. If you had to pick from the two which one would you pick?
 
I had a Geforce 5200FX 128Mb, that was a year ago. it worked in every game i owned at the time abiet some would run under 10FPS, and yes it was a AGPx8 and my motherboard only supported x4 so yeah no problems there.

If i was you i would definatly use the Geforce 5200 :)
 
i dont know the 128 mb i guess, but it will raise barely any fps

ur processor and ram are more coming into play for game performance

i dont think he is too worried about getting a good performance just weather or not to change to the 5200, and i would cause it is a newer card, DX9 support.

Although i would make sure if you do change get the latest drivers cause the one you have for the TI is bound to well out of date.
