Hey Oden...which card is better?
Which card is better:
XFX GeForce FX5200 128MB Retail box
or
A "newly pulled" GeForce FX5600 128 MB card made by ?????
fUkSt|cK already sent me to this site: http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=NDQ0 Any other ideas what is the best for gaming?
BTW..I noticed a few of performance charts on the HardOCP article had my current video card that the FX5200 was compared to. ATI Radeon 9000 Pro (albeit mine is only 4x AGP...does that matter?)

That is the one I bought 6 months ago...and been waiting for a 8X AGP Mobo to try it out. Only cost me $80 CDN at the time. I did think it would be better than my ATI 9000 Pro (at 4X) though.....[MgA]ODEN wrote:Anything but the FX5200 , it's a dog .

Way to go BRO! I didn't know anyone else had a 9000 Pro....*PyRO*AgENT 86 wrote:My ATi 9000 pro is still kicking major ass. I love it.
Probably on my underpowered CPU, my ATI card can't be driven fast enough.....we'll soon find out
Hey Agent...do you know how to do a timedemo in CoD?

Here's the weird thing with my XFX card:
All the pictures I've seen of THIS particular card show just a heatsink on the GPU, but mine has a fan.
The sticker on my card says this:

Okay I found out the FX5600 cards was looking at, were pulled from HP systems. They have HP part numbers on them....does it matter who makes the boards?GeForce FX 5200 AGP 8X 128MB DDR DVI Tv-out VGA
with a partnumber of PV-T34K-NAFB V.2.3 (which I can't find on the XFX website)

AHHHHHHH...you were the guy that EDITED my post then and added a line to MY post, instead of quoting mine (Edit and Quote actions are right beside each other...and because you moderate ALL forums as a Captain, you can)[MgA]TiMeX wrote:hmmm, where'd my post before Odens go ????
I better delete Oden's post so this thread makes sense.... (we might be able to salvage this thread, yet... )
I re-edited my posts and combined a bunch...I didn't want to get a BIG lead in post counts that MajorOne would get depressed and not be able to catch up....hehehe by the way i'm a girl.

What I wanted to know was how do I get CoD to tell me the Average FPS AFTER the demo is played.....*PyRO*Forsaken wrote:I recorded a deamo to use for this purpose[MgA]RockCrusher wrote:Way to go BRO!
