Albatron GeForceFX 5200P Videocard Review - PCSTATS
The Albatron GeForceFX 5200P is oriented towards budget gamers who want the latest and greatest in terms of technology but do not need the $500-levels of performance the other nVidia cards offer.

3DMark2001SE is the latest installment in the 3DMark series by MadOnion. By combining DirectX8 support with completely new graphics, it continues to provide good overall system benchmarks. 3DMark2001SE has been created in cooperation with the major 3D accelerator and processor manufacturers to provide a reliable set of diagnostic tools. The suite demonstrates 3D gaming performance by using real-world gaming technology to test a system's true performance abilities. Tests include: DirectX8 Vertex Shaders, Pixel Shaders and Point Sprites, DOT3 and Environment Mapped Bump Mapping, support for Full Scene Anti-aliasing and Texture Compression and two game tests using Ipion real-time physics.

Higher numbers denote better performance.

Video Card 3DMarks Ranking
1.

ATi Radeon 9700 Pro

15302
2. MSI G4Ti4600-TD 13808
3. MSI G4MX440-T8X 7487
4. Albatron GeForceFX 5200P 8182
5. Albatron GeForceFX 5200P (333/410) 8841

Here we see that the Albatron GeForceFX 5200P performs just a tad faster then the MSI GeForce4 MX440-8X. Please keep in mind that without the Nature demo (which the MX440-8X cannot run) the Albatron GeForceFX 5200P actually scores lower!

3DMark03 Source: MadOnion

This new accurate diagnostic tool, designed for DirectX9.0, provides you with all the information you need to make informed hardware assessments. Havok Total real-time physics library from Havok - these routines are used to accurately model the movements of objects due to forces, etc. FMOD sound library from Firelight Technologies - these are used for the various sound effects and routines used in the tests. Graphics adapter analysis software from Powerstrip of Entech Taiwan - this is used to correctly determine the speeds of the graphics processing and video memory chips, plus supply additional hardware information. Higher 3DMark03 scores denote better performance.

1.

ATi Radeon 9700 Pro

2. MSI G4Ti4600-TD 1917
3. MSI G4MX440-T8X 333
4. Albatron GeForceFX 5200P 1502
5. Albatron GeForceFX 5200P (333/410) 1694

Even though the Ti4600 is only DX8 compliant it's still able to out perform the Albatron GeForceFX 5200P. The MX440-8X does very poorly in 3DMark03 but that's because it can only run one test.
