Not reccomended.......2003-09-28
I got this card to replace a PNY Geforce 420. This card performs significantly worse than that older card. Do not be fooled by the fact that this card has 128 mb of RAM. That really means nothing. This card has no fan and seems likely to overheat unless your computer's cooling is really top notch. This card does not run Battlefield 1942 well. I think this card is pitched to gamers w/ its 128 mb of ram, but the performance is really unacceptable. There really is nothing good about this card whatsoever. Don't buy it. Spend a little more if you are gaming, or if you aren't, and just need something basic, you can get as good a card for half the price.
Underwhelming performance.......2003-05-14
The Geforce FX 5200 is intended to replace the old Geforce4MX 440, and it does succeed there. It does usually perform somewhat better than the old GF4MX (And over time the GF4MX will look even slower in comparison with games like Doom 3 on the horizon), and it also supports directx 9, whereas the GF4MX only supports directx 7.
The problem here is just that in most cases it simply isn't all that much faster than the GF4MX, and in some cases is a bit slower. You can get a Geforce4 Ti4200 for little more money, which will quite drastically outperform the FX 5200 across the board, even in future games such as Doom 3.
The card itself isn't that bad, if you don't play many games and just want something in your computer that will run games in a year or two, this will work, however, while it might run the games, you will have to stick with lower resolutions and no aniti-aliasing, resulting in lower image quality.
So, in conclusion - avoid this video card if you are an avid gamer, but if you just need something to replace whatever happened to come with your computer and aren't terribly concerned about performance, the Geforce FX 5200 would be an adequate solution, if on the pricey side.

Just an honest review.......2006-08-16
I bought this card because of its memory size (128) to play games. It was affordable for me, and I needed a low profile for my slim desktop. It is decent. For a value grade consumer video card it works just fine. Not top of the line of course. Those are like 500 dollars.
This is ok for semi-graphic intensive games to just speed up a bit. You probably won't max out your graphics settings with this card, but it really beats integrated graphics by a lot.
I bought it for the sole purpose of playing Age of Empires III. My 64MB integrated graphics couldn't handle the game with the graphics settings all the way down. This card can go up to Medium (LOW MED HIGH VHIGH) but will get slightly choppy. At Low, the game runs incredibly smooth and even gives more detail than when I used my 64 card. It also cooled my computer's processor 2 C, since it has its own onboard the card.
Recommened for value users for low graphics games and a decent video card upgrade. If you're still using integrated graphics, this is a great upgrade.

Another review........2004-06-20
Having to read some of the reviews of this card, I have some comments to say. Like one reviewer said "it beats the Intel Extreme graphics" was just totally funny. Of course GeForce FX 5200 beats the Intel graphics. Intel graphics are integrated graphics chip which usually comes with cheap computers with no AGP slots. They will hardly play any games other than older based games like Starcraft, Counter Strike, and Dos games and few more. Just note that this card is definitly have if you have a Intel Extreme graphics 1 or 2. Also, one reviewer mentioned to get games that says "This is the way it ment to be played" or something closed to it but that is incorrect. Most ATI cards will beat Nvidia cards in frames per seconds. I like Nvidia cards too, just that ATI cards are just better. If you don't believe me or accept the truth, just read PCgamers magazines or read real online reviews of (not customers) real electronic webistes or something. Still, don't worry if you do have a Nvidia card. Doom 3 and Painkiller supports Nvidia cards. Though Splinter Cell runs better on ATI Radeons. I probably wrote too much not about the card but about other reviewer's review. It probably didn't help much about this card but at least now you know that ATI cards are better.
This card is good for decent games but not games like Battlefield Vietnam or Splinter Cell Pandorra Tomorrow. You should get Geforce TI 4200 or Radeon 9200 for little more price.
Decent graphics card for affordable price........2004-06-07
This graphics card is only so-so but don't get me wrong. I quite like this card but a bit dissapointed for its' performance. I got this card for only $70 dollars on eBAY and it is pretty good for its price. But the dissapointment came to me when I found that this card was running slower than my older card, GeForce 4 Ti 4800. GeForce FX 5200 card was newer so I thought it would have run better than my GeForce 4 Ti 4800 on games like Unreal Tournament 2003, Battlefield 1942, or Call of Duty but every game looked much better on GeForce 4 Ti 4800 than on GeForce FX 5200. So I was wondering if I got the wrong card. Then I went to the Nvidia website for technical help and I saw the descriptions of the cards and GeForce 4 Ti 4800 happen to be better than GeForce FX 5200. Heck, my Geforce 4 Ti 4800 was even faster than GeForce FX 5500! So I put the GeForce FX 5200 card on my brother's computer since his computer had no video card and I kept my computer unopened with my dated but better performing GeForce 4 Ti 4800. It is a pretty good card for its' price but I recommend you to pay $10 more to buy GeForce 4 Ti 4800 on Ebay. Oh yeah, I can't forget to mention this but it's also kind of noisy but those problems aside, this is a nice card to have.
WOW!.......2004-03-02
This PNY card rocks! I have tried ATI graphics cards with little improvement. This card is the best. With its 128MB of DDR Memory and nVidia FX5200 chipset, it beats Intel Extreme Graphics. It may not be the most advanced card but if you are in need of a good graphics card at a low price BUY THIS ONE!
The Best Graphics Card For Gamers..........2004-02-07
GeForce FX 5200 AGP
For the price this is the best choice if you are a gamer and are going to spend about [$$$]. NVIDIA is the best choice over ATI. Did you know that NVIDIA is the maker of the graphics card installed on "NASA's Mars Rover"(c), and the graphics card of the of the XBOX. I have had other game cards and this one is simply the best. With this card you can see your video games cristal clear and at a right speed, just like it was meant to be. This card optimizes your games such as: Battlefield 1942 and Need For Speed: Hot pursuit 2. Look for video games that cary the "NVIDIA The way it's meant to be played" logo, such games that have this logo are "Splinter Cell". If you have an AGP slot in your computer you must purchase an AGP card. AGP cards are more faster than PCI cards. You just have to be sure your computer meets the minimum requirments for the best game play.
Don't bother.......2004-01-28
This card sucks, I thought I was upgrading from my Nvidia GTS2 card which had 64Meg. No change at all. It had a miniscule improvement on the sysoft sandra benchmark, not worth $119.

DOA.......2006-11-25
Mine was dead right out of the box. I sent it back for a refund.
Warning: NOT fanless!.......2005-05-13
I was looking for a fanless graphics card for my HTPC. I saw this one, and on all the photos I could find (including those on eVGA's own website), they were all depicted as fanless. However, when I received this in the mail, there was a fan. All website photos of video cards are typically "reference photos".
So beware. I think in general, the 128-bit DDR (either 128MB or 256MB RAM) cards are likely to have fans; many 64-bit DDR graphics cards are fanless. Just shop around. For reference, I ended up getting a Chaintech SH5200-128-DVI.
