I have two graphics cards:

PNY Technologies GeForce FX 5200 DDR 128MB
MS Powered By ATI Radeon 9000 Pro DDR 128MB

Motherboard is AGP 4X and so are both of the cards.

Please vote the POLL!

Thanks!

Wow.. thats like asking if a turtle is faster than a snail. 9000 pro is better. I don't even consider the 5200 a graphics card.

OKay it turns out that my version is not a 9000 PRO. It's just a 9000 with 128MB DDR. Is this still faster than the 5200? I'm playing Unreal II awakening and I'm getting a problem where the objects on the screen disappear and reappear when I'm moving. Is my video card too slow?

Your card is too slow but it's a driver issue causing the problem. Either that or an overclock.

The fx5200 is faster than a 9000 providing the fx5200 is 128bit and not 64bit.

9000 Pro, according to THG.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't bothered to read all the posts carefully when I posted. My bad. :)
