Hate to break it to ya, but both these cards suck ass. The geforce4 is actually just a geforce2 in disguise, and the fx5200 is worse than a geforce4 ti. You should find something like a radeon 9200 instead. I think that's the best ati PCI card, probably better than both of those.

Oh yeah, and you'll need to upgrade your computer. Really. People stopped using PCI for video a long time ago, they switched to AGP. Well, we are all switching from AGP to pci-e now. You are 2 generations behind in hardware, that's pretty bad lol.

Yeah you need to upgrade soon. Using a PCI card is like having a Pentium2.

Here is the best PCI card available.

Here is a place you can get it. The reference to "5200" in the ad is a typo (I asked). It is a full FX 5600 in PCI.

The FX 5700 LE is actually about the same as a FX 5200 Ultra, the FX 5600 is actually faster than either by quite a bit. It is about as fast as a Geforce 4 Ti 4600, but also has DirectX 9.0 support.
