hey..

i decided to buy a chip nvidia card for the meantime..

i found the FX 5200 Ultra to be in the right budget.

i have 2 questions..

what is the difference between the ultra and the non ultra..

second, will there be any AGP conflict as i'm using intel 850mv board (with agp 2.0)..

thanks a lot !!

The only difference I'm aware of between them is the core and memory clock speeds, the Ultra gets a bit extra performance with higher clock.

Otherwise, they share the same 128bit memory bus, 2 pixel pipelines and 4 texture units.

I don't think there should be any conflict with the board, having AGP2.0 The AGP will only be running at the x4 speed of that board, but the 5200 isn't a high performance card anyway so it shouldn't be hit too hard.

Plat is right, the clock speeds are the only dif
