Please help me make a choice on a new video card. I'm not going to spend alot, so I have only two choices:

Choice A: Nvidia Geforce FX5500 256MB AGP 8X w/DVI OUT

or

Choice B: ATI RADEON 9200 256MB DDR 8x AGP

Primary reason for the upgrade is FPSC. The rest of my system: Athlon 2200+, 768MB RAM, 350GB HDD space.

Thanks for the help.

well, I'm looking at about 60-70 on eBay for those two plus 10-15 shipping. Less than $100. Any more than that would mean certain death and torture from the boss (wife)

Anyone? Auction time almost up.

Guess I'll have to flip a coin

I suggest checking out Newegg.com becuase there is comparable pricing and you know you are going to get the item in a timely manner with no "problems"
