Yes! I'm using this graphic card for my 2 PCs. One from Eagle and another from Inno3D.

I had a geforce 4 mx440, basically the same as 5200. Trust me, its time to upgrade if you have one. If you think of getting one, drink some toilet water first, it might wake you up.

The most obvious difference is the DX compatibility. Speed wise they may be similar but you won't see MX440 run 3DM05

Stop living in the past lar, Now 6600gt is considered budget and 6800gt is mid-range. Anything cheaper is used as devices to torture.

I feel like upgrading the graphic cards, but I think I'll wait for the nVidia GeForce 6 series graphic cards to drop further more until at least S$135. Or we shall wait for GeForce 8 series in 2 years' times.
