GOOD! LoL i'm not good with the new FXs b/c i've never seen them and the idea of a vacum scares me (i guess maybe only 5800 ULTRA has it)

Yes the 5200 is faster than the Ti series and is also direct x 9.0 compatible. But i have heard all but bad things about the fx since its release. But with new drivers released this month reporting %5-%25 increase in performance it might not be a bad idea. I' still say 9500 or 9700 though:thumb:

Are you sure? The FX5200 are there to replace the old GF4 MX range....

Yes but it is up there with the ti 4600 and the 9500 to 9700's. But with added features:thumb:
edit=extra features are the features already included on the more powerfull radeon 9500 and 9700 cards:thumb:
