    hi there ... since i have a tight budget to get my self a good gaming
    system .. i need advice weather to use the money on getting an
    fx5200(128mb) for my intell P3 1.0Ghz system or to use it for
    getting an AMD Athelon system ...
    one more thing thats confusing me is that if i dont go for amd ... i
    can use that little cash left after fx to increase ram to 512 ...
    what should i do ... get a new system and use existing card or get a
    new card

    Unless I'm mistaken, all fx5200 gfx cards are AGP 8x, and there are NO P3
    motherboards that support this!

    FYI, there is a PCI version of the FX5200. Currently $130 at CompUSA.
