Hi. I NEED a new video card, but can only spend $100. If I could milk a few
bucks more I'd get the 9600Pro, but I can't and we have to leave it at that.
So I'm looking at the 9200...and it seems pretty OK. Especially since I'm a
moderate gamer and not hardcore.
However, comparing it against the GeForce 5200 FX I see that it advertises
DX9 compatability but I don't see anywhere that the Radeon 9200 does. Can
anyone confirm or deny that, please?

And if anyone has any other comments regarding the ATI 9200 vs the GeForce
5600FX I'd be glad to hear it.
Thanks!
Liam

The Radeon 9200 only supports DX8.1.

The FX5200 card is slightly faster than the Radeon 9200 and is
a good choice for those on a budget.
