3.0 out of 5 stars Decent graphics card for affordable price., June 7, 2004

This graphics card is only so-so but don't get me wrong. I quite like this card but a bit dissapointed for its' performance. I got this card for only $70 dollars on eBAY and it is pretty good for its price. But the dissapointment came to me when I found that this card was running slower than my older card, GeForce 4 Ti 4800. GeForce FX 5200 card was newer so I thought it would have run better than my GeForce 4 Ti 4800 on games like Unreal Tournament 2003, Battlefield 1942, or Call of Duty but every game looked much better on GeForce 4 Ti 4800 than on GeForce FX 5200. So I was wondering if I got the wrong card. Then I went to the Nvidia website for technical help and I saw the descriptions of the cards and GeForce 4 Ti 4800 happen to be better than GeForce FX 5200. Heck, my Geforce 4 Ti 4800 was even faster than GeForce FX 5500! So I put the GeForce FX 5200 card on my brother's computer since his computer had no video card and I kept my computer unopened with my dated but better performing GeForce 4 Ti 4800. It is a pretty good card for its' price but I recommend you to pay $10 more to buy GeForce 4 Ti 4800 on Ebay. Oh yeah, I can't forget to mention this but it's also kind of noisy but those problems aside, this is a nice card to have.

This PNY card rocks! I have tried ATI graphics cards with little improvement. This card is the best. With its 128MB of DDR Memory and nVidia FX5200 chipset, it beats Intel Extreme Graphics. It may not be the most advanced card but if you are in need of a good graphics card at a low price BUY THIS ONE!

The fan went out so the card over heats. PNY tech support buy phone and email states there is NOT A LIFETIME WARRENTY for this product even though it states that there is on the box and under Technical Details on Amazon's page. I will never buy another PNY product.
