Yayy! Gotta new Graphics card and 1 GB RAM as an Early-ish Birthday present....

The Graphics card is a Geforce 5200, Not exactly X10 stuff, but it's running my computer alot better now....

Does anyone else have a card like this? What are your views on FPSC performance rate,etc....

(Oh,BTW, my old card was an Intel Graphics 900, so this one is greater by far compared to that.)

I used to have a 5200. Most games were fine but FPSC wasn't all that great - although upgrading from the intel card it's probably going to be WAY better. Of course now I have an 8800 - I need to go buy something like Crysis just to test its potential

That's pretty good.
I would never had guessed that.
I would have thought you would at least need an 8600.

Crysis had my 8800gt so hot I thought I smelled smoke!
But then again, I lost track of time and had been playing for hours. (or was it days?)
Oh well, I just went back to 2142 Battlefield, because that doesn't overheat the card.
I like 2142's multiplayer levels better anyway.

I dunno, did you get it as a set or have it built for you, or have you upgraded it lately?

You can check the box it came in, or if you've got XP, go to start->Run->DXDIAG.exe....

It'll bring up all of your specs....

Don't know really....

But if you look at the 2nd post, a guy with a 9250 posted saying it wasn't much good so I'd guess yours is better, but only a little....
