MSI's Geforce FX 5200-T128 = FX 5200 Ultra !!

I recently bought an MSI Geforce FX 5200-T128 and decided to OC it and replace the stock heatsink to help the OC'ing a bit. It comes with a heatsink only and no fan. I got this cooler from an old Macintosh machine that could fit perfectly into the GPU. When I open the stock heatsink on the card I was surprised that on the GPU there is "FX 5200 Ultra" written on it. Is it really the ultra version ? If it is, then how come the Detonator (Both MSI's and Nvidia's) recognise it as a Geforce 5200 series only...not ultra ?? I read in the net that sometimes you can make an ordinary card and turn into the ultra ver. by changing the BIOS ! Can someone explain to me about this ? Am I really having the Ultra ver. GPU ??? Can I alter the BIOS so it works like an ultra ver ?? THX ppl......

hi,
i have the same card with you. o/c'd it to its limits [290GPU/464DDR] normally it had to reach 320GPU and 500DDR but the ram on card 5ns soo highest is 464Mhz[i am sorry]. you can o/c it to 320GPU-480DDR but at these speeds;
in 3dmark 2003 wings of furry test it passes some frames like slow cards and 2001SE it crushes on looping 3-4 tests...
when i relased that it is working but graphics are little choppy you can see...
290GPU&464DDR is the best stable solution i could able to find .. i o/c'd it with riva tuner and 3D turbo express .....both gives the same result...

hey guys,
please tell me is my Graphic card MSI Geforce FX 5200 T128 is 128 bit or not?

hey guys,
i wanted to ask if the basic FX 5200 is 64 bit then what will those VTD models of the FX 5200 do , it makes no sense either MSI FX 5200 is 64 bit Original and there are no 128 bits ok or it must be FX 5200 Ultra which i could not get cause it was not available only i could find was FX 5700 Ultra which was too expensive or the 5600 which was also expensive this was perfect but each model i found was 65 bit ??? why ?

Try disabling AGP fast writes.
If you have a passively coold FX it's possible it's heating up, you should try it with the case open or with a fan over the heatsink.

[GeForce PCe] FX 5200 T128 VS RX300HM

I will change my video card, but i have right now a FX 5200 T128, i want to change to RX300HM PCIe
work equal or have better with the PCIe card.
My mother is a MSI K8N NEO3-F with AGR SLOT and PCIe slot

Hello, I am for buying this video card (MSI RX300HM). The performance of the pci - e is much better than the agr,this is said constant in the forums. Equally do I want to ask them that such it is this video card?

MSI 5200 T128 intermittent no Video at POST

Hi folks:
I've got a MSI FX 5200 T128 AGP that occasionally refuses to display video on POST. (monitor says: NO SIGNAL) The card works in other machines, but the problem seems to come and go (on the original machine), so it might be a problem in other machines too, but I need more time to test that.
Also, there seemed to be some occasional minor video corruption - as if the monitor was degaussing - this also occurs intermittently.
Pulled out the card, tried a 1 MB PCI vid card, worked ok for a week. Put the MSI FX AGP card back in - worked for 3 days - shut down computer overnight - in morning no POST, problem reoccured.
Tried the monitor on other computers - seems ok.
I thought it might be a PSU issue, so that was changed, but the problem remains.
This computer functioned OK for 15 months. Suddenly this issue started.
No power surges have occured / no lightening strikes
the vid card and motherboard are still under MSI's warranty.

-pull and reseated video card
- pull and reseated system RAM
- visual inspection of Vid Card = no burns, no loose parts
My guess is: - Video card bad
- AGP Slot bad
- other Motherboard issue.
I need to know:
-solution(s)
-if Video card fails in another machine, I'll RMA, but the problem occurs after some time, will they accept this RMA?
-if Video OK, then mobo? Same as above: problem intermittent, and takes time to reoccur, will they accept this RMA?
Thanks.

I have a K7N2G-ILSI with a Barton 2500+and installed an FX 5200-TD128 card and computer would not POST. The problem ended up being the memory (2 x GEIL Ultra DDR400 256MB @ 333MHZ). After replacing mem. with 2 x PNY PC2700 DDR333 256MB resulted in instant cure. Try replacing your DDR400 with DDR333 mem. sticks.

5200 T128. my computer freezes when i try to run games

OK.. the thing is: i just bought a Geforce FX 5200 T128, with 128 MB DDR (the one without a cooling fan), and when i try to run my DirectX 9 games (GTA: Vice city, NFS: Underground, Hitman: Contracts) my computer locks up in the game's loading screen. These lock-ups occur also, when i set the anisotropic filtering at values higher than 2x, and/or when i turn the V-sync on, but only when i start a game..
ALSO...... the same lock-up occurs when i try to RENAME A FILE ------- the cursor is still blinking, but EVERYTHING else freezes.
So? whats up guys.... last time i checked the FX 5200 had support for DX9, didn't it?
Well, i can't tell exactly if the problem is common to all DX9 games, because i didn't tryed many of them... but the games listed above, all require DX9. Furter more, those games ran on my older Geforce2 MX400, witch doesn't have support for DX9. All my other non DX9 games work fine (well not to the max, because i still have a mainboard witch supports only AGP 4x). If i change my mainboard to one with AGP 8x will the problem be solved?
Also, the videocard, out of my opinion, gets too hot after i play a game, but i don't think this should be the problem, because when i try to start those games, my computer still locks up, even though i just started it, and the videocard didn't have time to overheat.
The problem occurs with both the driver from the CD that came with the card, and the new Forceware 56.72. I haven't tryed oder drivers. The videocard is not overclocked, and the frequencies are on the standard 200 Mhz (GPU), and 400 Mhz (RAM)
So, can you help me out here.. give me some suggestions? I have written here all the information i beleive are relevant to the problem. My processor is a 1200 Mhz AMD Duron, and 256 MB SDRAM
------------- -------------

Obi One,
Have you tried changing the AGP voltage in your bios to 1.6V? Got the same problem before when running 3D games. My system doesn't lock up but it gives me weird display (lot of greens). It was solved when I increased my AGP voltage setting from 1.5V to 1.6V. You may want to post your power supply specs too because the FX cards are really power hungry.
Good Luck

MSI nVidia GeForce 4200 TI driver problem

Hi.. I really need your help guys..
First of all, I have Windows XP Pro.
Okay, I have this MSI nVidia GeForce 4200 TI card, and wanted to change drivers.
I had 50.xx, and wanted to change back to 40.xx, because it works better with Counter-Strike.
So, I went into Device Manager and went into the video card properties -> driver.
I pressed the 'Uninstall driver', because you need to uninstall the newer driver if you want to install an older driver.
Then my computer restarted, and when it was booting, a blue screen or something came up, with text about my computer was deleting and scanning some files(?).
I don't know what it was uninstalling excatly, but when I got into Windows I had to use a 'VGA driver' or something..
I tried to install the 40.xx driver, double clicked the Setup.exe but when it was begining to install this error came up: 'An error occured while launching the setup. (0x80040702)'.
I don't know what it means, but I can't install any drivers for nVidia?!
I tried the Device manager, and I can't update the 'VGA' ..
It's like my computer isn't recognizing the card or something.. I've tried 'Add new hardware' and everything.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance.
P.S. My PC specs:
Intel Pentium4 2.0GHz
Some IBM mainboard
512DDR
GeForce 4200 TI
Windows XP Pro

Generally for nVidia drivers for the VGA, is what I explained above by going to Add Remove programs in control panel and look for the entry for nVidia display drivers.
Since you are asking me this, I fear you may not be at the experience level required to do this as it can be somewhat of a nightmare if all the drivers are not removed completely. This is what you just experienced.
Look at the top of this forum and you will se an Important thread called driver cleaner, by Bonz and then the one above it by me. Go to the DriverHeaven Website and download the DC utility but make sure you read EVERYTHING and understand it before you proceed. If you are confused or not comfortable, then I suggest finding someone that is experienced enough to do it for you.
It should be pretty straightforward.
Good luck

Problem with MSI Nvidia GeForce 6800 LE (128MB) when playing 3D games

Games problem
I have bought a new MSI Nvidia GeForce 6800 LE (128MB) a couple of months ago and have been have loads of trouble when playing games.
In windows, the graphics card works fine. The computer never crashes and everything is speedy. Movies on DVD, Xvid, Divx all play fine without problem, the most I get is the occasional freezing and then windows will be normal again.
The problem arises when I try to play a 3D game. When I load up the game it goes into the menu screens ok, the computer will load up the 3D engine and it will play for around a minute nice and crisp then the screen will go blank and computer will lock up. Then all the drives will go quiet and the computer will make 3 beeps with the PC speaker. Pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL at this point does nothing, nor does the reset button. I have to turn the power on and off.
I really have no clue why this is happening, I have taken the covers off and kept it in a cool area, hoping that it was something to do with over heating, my computer is not overly cluttered and this has made no difference.
I have also unplugged the CDR, DVDR, USB ports, one Hard drive (storage) to see if it was something to do with the power no getting to the Videocard and then tried to play a game and the same problem arose.
I have two games that I have tried, Tiger woods 2005 and doom III, both of which crash in the same manner.
I have tried to be as detailed as I can with the descritopn of my computer below and the power details I'm not sure about so I posted a picture of the power unit to help.
Many thanks for your help in this matter, I'm desperately trying to get some worth out of this card and feel frustrated that its going bonkers only when trying to play games :/
Please tell me if you require further information about the system.

Firstly, thank you for all your prompt responses, I really appreciate it. From the sounds of it, the PSU is ****
antec
From what I have read, the Antec PSUs have good reliability and ratings. I looked around and saw this one: Antec NEOPower 480W ATX PSU for around £65. I also went read that article posted by Dr Stu, which then stumbled on more articles about PSUs.
I have a couple more questions….
The rating of my system (http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/Power_Supply_Calculator.php) with all the components running came out to be 422W. So do you think that the Antec NEOPower 480W ATX PSU would be sufficient for the computer considering I might add more RAM in the future?
Or should I buy the 500W+ one then?
Does anyone know if the Antec PSUs are quiet? My current q-Tec one makes me feel I'm in an aeroplane.
lucky I read the forum!
I was in Maplins (computer shop) at lunch and thought, that shiny 650W Q-Tec looks nice and there looks like loads of power, that much do the trick. i got to the counter and thought.....let me wait, till i get home from work and read some more on the forum about this PSU issue.
Thanks god I didn’t buy that S***. having read some of the reviews, i would have wasted loooots of money for nothing.

MSI NVIDIA GeForce GT 640, 4GB 128-Bit DDR3 on my p7-1380t Desktop

I am looking for a new graphics card that will not require a new power supply and I was wondering if this one would work with my computer. I am not looking for any top of the line stuff and nothing too expensive either
MSI NVIDIA GeForce GT 640, 4GB 128-Bit DDR3
This question was solved.
View Solution.

A-diddy, welcome to the forum.
If this is the video card that you want to buy, I don't believe that it will work with the existing 300W PSU. It has an additional power connector which means that it requires more that the 75W provided by the PCIe slot to operate properly. The specs say that it only consumes 45W. I don't know why they have an additional power connector. Your existing PSU does not have the required cable for the connector.
I suggest calling the manufacturer's Customer Service to verify the requirements are correct.

MSI Geforce 7800 GTX with MSI Nvidia GeForce 7800GT in SLI?

Hi. I bought the MSI Nvidia GeForce 7800GT a few months ago with the intention of buying a second to run in SLI. Now i can't seem to find anywhere that sells it at a decent price. Originally i bought it from www.ebuyer.co.uk but they have discontinued it.
Could i buy a MSI Geforce 7800 GTX and run it in SLI? They should have the same gpu and the specs aren't that different.

Now... don't LOL, but there is a reason I picked the 3200+ instead of the 3000+, but I can't remember why???
Probably because the 3000+ only has a 9x maximum multiplier, whereas the 3200+ will go to 10x.
2600MHz at 9x means a FSB of 289MHz and ram at 289MHz for best performance. Will your ram do 289MHz? Of course you *can* run your memory and fsb async, but I prefer not to.

FX-5200-T128 and DVI-I

Hi all,
I have a 5200 whithout a digital output and I´m interested in a TFT with DVI-I.
The manual of the card says that the card "supports" DVI-I. Can I buy a connector forn the card or something like that?
Thanks,

Most flat panels accept standrad VGA plug. So your FX5200 T128 would work with them. Buy a new card if you are interested in the "improved" quality with DV-I. I have an FX5200-128TD, which comes with both VGA and DV-I connectors. I have also an HP1903 panel which accepts both VGA and DV-I connectors. Picture quality is marginally better with DV-I. Both are excellent by the way.
