GeForce FX 5200

Is the GeForce FX 5200 the midrange or the "mx" type card of the GeForce FX line?

I need a video card fast, local store has this with 128MB of DDR for $95. Can't wait to buy online or anything.

sorta, you see the mx of the geforceline did not support directx8. but in the fx line, every card in it supports direct x 9. the 5200 performs like a geforce4mx with no fsaa/af, but when it is enabled it should be closer to a 4200

I found that my GF4 Ti4200 wiped the floor with my FX5200 with or without fsaa/af enabled which is why I sold the FX5200 and kept the Ti4200.

The 5200, like the previous MX's, is the low end of nVidia's lineup.
