    Hi all,

    I know these are probably outdated cards but was wondering which one would be more suitable for playing games ?

    They both have 128mb of memory .

    If they're both crap then which one would be the least crap ?

    Cheers

    The 9800Pro will absolutely kill the 5200. To say the 5200 is crap is an understatement, one had to truly use the card to understand the horror (from a gaming perspective) - and that's not even referring to new games, it's referring to games that were popular even when the 5200 was a new card.

    Thanks Ppl , that 5200 card is now destined for a machine that only uses word, excel and the odd search on Google :D

    9800pro was a great card in it's day, it could play half life 2 reasonably well too.

    Don't be looking up those color intensive pictures in google images now, the card might combust under the strain
