Dude is right, and the GeForce FX5200 was basically nVidia's way of
discarding the cheap GeForce 4 MX card line, in that because of the poor
performance of GF4 MX cards being based over the ancient GeForce 2 line,
they performed poorly and many people began complaining. So nVidia upgraded
the GF4 MX line to the GF FX 5200 card. So basically the 5200 is the low
end
FX card for the average general PC consumer, not ment to be used by a PC
gamer.

Well, You have convinced me. I have a brand new Toshiba Satellite P20
with a 3G P4 and an FX 5200 GO card with 64M, and from a side by side
comparison with my old Dell 733M P3 using a Geforce 256 with only 32M,
the Dell eats the Satellite on speed of video displays, opening and
closing programmes etc.. I'm not a gamer, but I'm still not at all
impressed with the FX 5200!!

Youre comparing a notebook to a desktop.

YOure comparing a notebook graphics system to a desktop graphics
system.

You maybe comparing a notebook full of crap, typical of name brand
systems which is eating your memory and cpu time. Clear out the crap.
