Geforce FX 5200 128MB

Everyone made fun of the new nvidia card before it came out. the fan is huge, its not a whole lot better than ati 9700 etc...


but check out the prices:

holy shit, its only $80... my good old geforce4 ti4200 is still twice as much..

that kinda explains their strategy.. if this card is really better than ati9700pro, its such a sweet deal!

Something has got to be wrong with that. What am I misreading, here? I can't believe that the newest top-of-the-line video card is actually selling for $80.

Is "GAINWARD" some sort of budget hardware producer like Kingston or is GAINWARD the release name or something?

Man, the Radeon site sucks ass. It's almost like they are trying to hide information. Can anyone find actual performance numbers?

Here's the GeForce FX 5200:

Memory Bandwidth: 10.4GB/sec.
Fill Rate: 1.3 billion texels/sec.
Vertices per Second: 81 million/sec.
Maximum Memory: 128MB

Edit: GeForce also has the 5600 and 5800. Maybe they alll launched together and that drove the price down?

I was just about to buy a new video card, was going for the ATI 9800. But now with this news... I might hold off and see what this Geforce is all about?

... And since the Radeon 9500 NON-Pro can be softhacked to a Radeon 9800, this is probably why GeForce is trying to battle it out.
