GeForce FX5200 128MB DDR AGP Video Card w/TV-Out, DVI
Good for everyday use and reasonably priced
This card was really easy to install, and worked just fine out of the box, with the default Win XP drivers (although it comes with a driver's cd). Just make sure you have AGP 4X or 8X in your computer before you order it. <br /> <br />Amazon's price was reasonable ($ 39.99), and they shipped it to me really fast, so within 3 days of purchasing it, I got the box delivered with the videocard, directions to install it, the driver's cd, and some kind of cable to convert S-Video signals to single RCA. I was also able to install it myself in just a few minutes. <br /> <br />Before having this card, I just had the integrated graphics that came with my pc (vaio rx860), so I can really tell there is a big difference between having a dedicated videocard and the integrated video I had before. <br /> <br />I have not demanded much from it yet, since I don't have any video-intensive computer games, but it has worked just fine and it has proved to be fast enough for most applications I run in my pc, which go from regular office programs, to some video capturing from my camcorder (through my computers IEE1394, not this card) and editing with Movie Maker. I also take plenty of pictures and do most of the editing with MGI's PhotoSuite, ArcSoft's Photostudio and Adobe's Premiere LE, which have all worked fine.
