NO..still 6200 will be better coz the 5200 gfx processors itself is very under powered.....


thanks samrulez u've been a great help and thanks to all others for sharing their knowledge

i'll try to squeeze 6600 (non-GT) 128mb in my budget
if not i'll go for 6200 256MB over 128MB
is it okay?

According to Microsoft, u need a 128 MB Card to run Vista at 1600X1200, beyond that u need a 256 MB Card

the 256 MB, Geforce 6200 uses slow RAM, but it's good though for vista

refrain from a FX 5200, just because Geforce 6200 is better at same price, not because FX card perform bad in Vista

Buy either a Geforce 6200 with 128bit interface & 128 MB RAM, although 64bit is slower, but not that much in Vista, it still has enough horsepower, but it is slow for games.

Since u r looking for a graphics card to run Vista, & gaming doesn't seem to be your requirment, I would say better get the Geforce 6200 with 128 mb & 64 bit path, that should do at a very low price, u don't need 256 MB, unlesss u plan to run vista above 1600X1200
