Hey there, since my old 5200 burned out, I thought about buying a Geforce 6200 AGP card. I run a Dell Dimension 4600, I want to be 100% sure that this card WILL work with my computer before I buy it (money is tight).

    As far as I know the 6200's never came with a molex power connector so there shouldn't be any issues that I can forsee. It should draw its power from the AGP slot just like your FX5200 did.
     
    How much are you paying for the 6200 tho? These cards are pretty rare nowadays and can't be too cheap, it might be worth investing in a new system. If that is out of the question, atleast check out the 6600's as well. I am pretty sure they can be had for around the same price of the 6200's and will perform much much better.

    becareful when buying AGP cards, certain ones are not compatible with some boards, be sure to look at the AGP slot of the motherboard and the AGP connector on the card.

    This chart here especially is important:

     
    I once had a AGP 3.0 card and put it into a Universal AGP slot in a system, and while it did fit it didn't work.

    sure the pentium 4 systems are still useable, I have a P4 2.8Ghz system under my desk, It be a good retro system. I need to get some more Ram a better AGP card for it though as well. (currently only has 512MB ram and a GF4 MX440 LOL)

    There was a guy selling like 4x1GB of DDR 400MHz ram on the marketplace for like 17 dollars. They made AGP all the way up to the ATI HD4000 series.

    Like I said, money is tight. If I had the $ I'd build a new rig... But it does what I want it to do.

    You could part together a core2duo system on the EVGA Marketplace for under 100 dollars easy. Even on eBay ive been seeing E6300's with a P35 motherboard and 2GB of RAM going for 50 dollars. It's not that expensive to upgrade to a system that will out perform the one you currently have by at least 4 times.
