i was wondering if the 6200 will make a huge difference than the 5200? because the 5200 is only $44 dollars, but the 6200 is $157 at best buy. im buying a video card so that i can run World of Warcraft smoothly, and im planning on purchasing 1GB of RAM also. my mobo has a PCI slot only.

eVGA 128-P1-N309-LX GeForce FX5200 128MB 64-bit DDR PCI Low Profile

the 6200 is a much much better card in fact it would be like putting a baby and a 4th grader in a coloring contest.
 
thanks for the replys, i think im going for the 5200. $157 bucks is a lot for a PCI in my opinion, and especially buying it from best buy. nuken, those cards that you showed me, the X1300 and the 6200, those interfaces wont fit into mine. i have the other type of interface. just like the EVGA FX5200.

my interface:

X1300 and 6200 interface:

id go with the 6200 because even though its most expensive u can barely get descent pci cards nowadays with everything being agp and that so is getting phased out to pci-e cards. i dont know how smoothly the 5200 will play WoW, my bfg 5600 could play it half descent.
