both suck, neither are meant for graphics really, the SE of ATI is their 'Sucky Edition' as some people will say it.

read towards the bottom about their mainstream and performance models....the 5200 is mainstream and not meant for good graphics handling...but really neither is that ATI....but all in all ATI is supposed to be better that nvidia in the previous generation cards...so stick with the ATI.... but if you ever upgrade to the next gen cards, meaning the 6800 or X800, go with the 6800 cause it far outperforms the ATI's X800...also they are releasing a 6600 series later this year which will also blow away ATI's version the X600 which is just the mainstream model of the 6800 for around $199 I think.

Keep the ATI
