I take back my earlier comment, buy a better card.EgyptBoy20 said:I would like a performance boost...a big one.
lol...ok forget about it... im gettin a new system anyway by the end of this year so (AthlonFX-53!) dont worry about it.cell_491 said:take it and smash it with a hammer itll give you 300 fps...flying pieces a second
375 or 475 for the core? I cant pass 300... I got 500 for the memoryaZn_plyR said:o hell yeah you can make it better..my lil bro has one...ok start by overclocking the memory alot..you sould at least get 75mhz out of the memory...with this...I gained 7fps in countrer strike source VST..yes...7..the 5200 is memory bandwidth starved...the core doesn't really do much...I got the core to 475..a total of 10 fps gain in CS:S VST.

The $99 (+$3 shipping) Gigabyte 6200 at newegg is a PCI-E version.Erc said:Dude , buy a 6200 for like U$ 99 from newegg .
lol yeacell_491 said:yea buying a 6200 would be upgrading from a card that cant play anything to a NEW card that cant play anything...lol
The 6200 is faster than the 9600 Pro in some things and slower in others. I guess that means the 9600 Pro can't play any games either.cell_491 said:yea buying a 6200 would be upgrading from a card that cant play anything to a NEW card that cant play anything...lol
It's nice to know that since you have no experience with the cards you mentioned that your opinion means nothing. Read some reviews to at least get an idea of the performance instead of just spouting nonsense.cell_491 said:the 9600pro sux i wouldnt buy one..itll play everygame that the 5200 will fine but itll have just as much of a hard time playin HL2 as the 5200 and the 6200 will, if you gonna spend the money spendit on sumthin thats gonna make a difference
The 6200 -> 6600 unlocking is easy, but that must have been a pretty impressive overclock (450MHz core is pretty easy) to get a modded 6200 up to 9800 Pro performance.Mister E said:On an off topic note I will admit that the guy who modded his 6200 to near 9800Pro performance in that link was very very impressive.
