asus vs. abit graphics

[CT2TXtech]

OK, im a broke guy, but i am going to get FFXI and need to upgrade a video card.(onboard video sucks) Which card is a better one
ASUS V9520 Magic/128M VGA or ABIT Siluro FX5200 DT 8XAGP VGA w/ 128MB DDR

What do you guys think?



Anyone have any feedback on the Asus Radeon 9600SE and the Asus Radeon 9200SE

What video processor is the ASUS using?

I don't think brand of card matters that much, its all in the chip.

FX5200

Don't look at getting and fx5200, 9600se, or 9200se for gaming. They all suck. At least get a 9600np or a ti4200.

Light years ahead of the FX5200s. They cost more, about 150 for a 9600 Pro, but they give MUCH more performance than an FX5200. They also have full DX9 compliance, a major plus, even if FF Eleven isn't DX9.

Try and find one with 2.8ns memory though, you can get a good memory overclock with them.

That would be fine, much better than the fx5200.
