Both were NV 3x based, but there was 2 different 5200's, one released about 6 months after the 1st, both sporting different ram/gpu clocks and minor architectural differences. I still have versions of both types.

I never knew that. It sort of explains why when I moved from my 5200 (which seemed to perform better than the reviews I'd seen) to a 6200 I got very little performance boost.

The 5200 was NV34 - the 6200 was NV43
Many times its more about the software (drivers, etc) than the card...

And, of course, there are two 6200s. The first a crippled 6600 and the later based on its own die. Leave it to Nvidia to make it complicated.
