GeForce FX5200 (250Mhz/400Mhz) 3D DDR 128MB AGP8X
VS
Geforce 4 Ti4280 128MB
Which is better and why ?
Or if you all think I can get better bang for the buck by going with ATI
Trying to stay at $60-80 :(

Definitley the ti4200. If that doesn't have agp 8x, dont worry..you lose basically no performance running at 4x.

The 4800se will perform better and overclock higher than the other. Kind of depends if you want or need vivo and how much you want to spend.

VIVO is Video In Video Out - OEMs sometimes provide this functionality when the chipset supports it.
