Readon 7500 or FX 5200

[Cody]

My friend has a choice between a Ati readon 7500 or a Geforce FX 5200. Now I am a ATI fan so I would tell him to take the 7500 even if its older The Fx 5200 has a DVI connection so he would have to get a VGA-DVI converter because his monitor doesn't support DVI. What do you guys think?

its a lowend card, who cares?

I know that... but I believe the FX 5200 is AGP 8x 128 megs and the 7500 is 64 megs AGP 4x... just wanted to know based on people who have had these cardswhat they thought

FX5200. I'm getting that too! I was going to get the 9250 SE, but the FX is better!

the 5200 also has shaders (even though they suck), the 7x00's don't.
