Better graphic card ???

[Believil]

  Hello,
 Can some one tell me which Graphic card is better as i got two of them
first is a nVidia Geforce Ti 4200 64mb
second is a  nVidia Geforce FX 5200 AGP8x 128mb

Reason is I wanna use the better one until i can afford a upgrade

The FX 5200 is superior, but depending on what you are doing you may not need a new video card.

What makes you think you need an upgrade?

it's because i brought a new game called Empire earth have not add chance to play it yet so don't know if it's any good but yea it's mainly for games at the moment i'm with the Ti 4200 but i'm now i'm going to change it to the FX 5200
Thanks for the info

Don't be surprised if you don't see much difference between the two cards.  The FX 5200 should be a little better, but I don't believe you'll see a big difference.  I'm basing this on peronal experience with both cards.

However, if your game requires DirectX 9, you should go with the FX 5200, which was the first nVidia card with DirectX 9.  The Ti 4200 is DirectX 8.

I'm using the Ti 4200 at the moment so i should switch over.
