  • Hi Guyz.. E-GeForce FX 5500 Video Card is nice in online games but if you are a Monster Gamer.. you must try this one.. Killer™ Xeno™ Pro Gamming Network Card

    I have this one.. called Killer™ Xeno™ Pro Gamming Network Card...

    its better for online game performance, more control, and more intelligence out of your Xeno™

    than ever before.

    hahahah lol =p

  • Yeah laugh all you want, but I have that same exact card in an older desktop that replaced the crappy S3/VIA integrated video and it ran games from around 2005 and older pretty good, plus it frees up the RAM the integrated video was taking up. Good for older AGP systems from earlier in the decade.

  • @DanZero77 lol this card is sooo old

  • Last time I had this card was in 2007 when I gave it to my friend

  • I have a 6200, This is a good card though, I had an old pc with an fx5500.

  • @supladz you call that suffering? you should be happy! i had an geforce 4 mx440 1 week ago it had no pixel shaders or vertex shaders im very happy whit fx5500

  • nice hear, shit card

  • @ZeroSixNinetyFour same here. plan to upgrade to 9500 gt.

  • @ZeroSixNinetyFour Oh shit. Lol. Time to upgrade my friend. My 9800 GTX+ works great for me.

  • @ZeroSixNinetyFour try the nvidia geforce gtx 590,its the latest graphics card

  • @ZeroSixNinetyFour same is the case with me fx5500 128 mb 64 bits

  • @ZeroSixNinetyFour yes it is a god damn terrible graphics card and was UNDERPOWERED even at its TIME... Pretty pathetic that I had to deal with this card a couple years.

  • i have this card but i want to play gta iv on it. its not working in it why

  • @TheGulShah *Face smash* (facepalm not enough)

  • i had experienced with this card and it was a good agp card. i had upgraded my pc last year with xfx HD 5890 1 gb card

  • @5221Adnan theirs no such thing as an hd 5890

  • i had experienced with this card and it was a good agp card. i had upgraded my pc last year with xfx HD 5890 1 gb card

  • @BigThangsPoppinMayne *Facepalm*

  • Uhhhh... Pink box? My FX 5500 Box had a Blue dragon on it :P

  • lol this is the card i got right now...with my i7...8gb of ram...1000psu...evga motherboard bla bla bla..... :/

  • @BigThangsPoppinMayne is that even a joke? you have money for an i7, 8gb of ram, 1000 psu(which is overkill according to your setup) and you only have a 5500? i just wish your joking because if not, your an idiot.....

  • @massmurderer02 aww :( lol yea and i got the 1000 psu only cuz i can.....well this card runs every game i've played very smooth so im not complaining right now. i'll get a better card this summer.

  • @BigThangsPoppinMayne you psu could run like...tri sli w/o breaking a sweat.

    I hope to God you upgrade a little sooner.....You know you want to :)

  • my old card....was good....served its purpose....now i bought a new mobo and my xfx hd 6870....^^

  • i have that crap.

  • @InGamer1 ur not alone:)

  • Overclock that shit!

  • Yeah that card was GREAT for PCI, but PCI slots sucked aids. Through a straw. Therefor the card sucked.

  • i bought this video card 1 year ago, still didn't let me down...

  • @pedinhuh16 What were the games u ran what's there minimum required vid card?

  • @DieselGTX

    to be honest with you, i dont play any PC Games...

    i've just bought it to release some RAM from my old onboard VGA.

  • I have a BFG FX5500OC and this is an awful card. Honestly...its really bad.

  • PCI FTW!!!!!

  • what's the latest drivers for this card plzz

  • I have a ECS P4VMM2 s478 mobo that supports Agp 4x vga. Will this fx5500 work on my mobo?

  • @Billabongs122988 it will definitely work...

  • @Billabongs122988 yes it will

  • need for speed most wanted on 1024x768. no prob :D

  • meh, it's cheap. i bought it for like 50 bucks 2 years ago , and it's... mmm...i can't say i found any games that worked best on it. it made Warcraft 3 load faster. DoW 1 lagged on higher settings. couldn't support all the funky effects in Project Snowblind and Civ 4. but Civ 4 lags even with more powerful cards, so screw Python codes. i mostly play old games with it, and old games don't care about direct x. yes, it is quiet. but my version didn't have a fan, just a heatsink.

  • The FX 5500 wasn't THAT bad, I was still gaming on it till 2005, playing games like Doom 3, Halo PC, Counter Strike Source, GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas. It was definitely the best $35 purchase I ever made, over 3 years of fun it brought me.

  • @equalitis this card fuckin sucked, the entire FX series sucked, ATi's 9xxx series dominated the FX cards. FX shader performance was horrible

  • @bobbytomorow That it did, but just because it was out-performed doesn't mean that its performance was insufficient for HAVING FUN. Because I didn't have much money back then and I was new to PC gaming, I didn't particularly care to have games maxed at 1600x1200 with AA, etc. I could run almost any game of the day at 1024x768 with medium to high settings, and that's all i could ask for out of a sub $40 gfx that i got as an afterthought from the local wal-mart.

  • @bobbytomorow true. Absolutely. FX series really sucked. 

  • @Chandu83 DUH! CUZ those are the first generation of the nvidia like getting to create graphics not advance yet!

  • @equalitis I play on it till today ;_;

  • @equalitis i played all those games on an fx5200 xD ah well, they worked... low settings...

  • @equalitis you're wrong. It was pretty god damn terrible. I had to deal with using one for a couple years too.

  • hey buddy Could you please suggest me for a monster mobo my budget is $180 to play game like cod4 and crysis with intel e7500.

  • 270 Mhz core?

    I'd much prefer Intel HD graphics to this XD

  • How much they have paid this guy for praising this piece of shit

    it had this and it could not run even Flight Simulator 2004 correctly

    I think this video is from 1950 my grandfather says that i used to play games with this card in 1950.

    It brings back the memories of 1950s

  • I bought my first PC (a packard Bell 6052 ) in November 2003 and bought a GeForce 5500 for it. I've still got it and run it sometimes when my higher spec PC breaks down. The 6052 + 5500 GPU is an ultra reliable machine and very quiet and has never given me a single problem.

  • i got the pny verto one and i cant complain but u pplz sai that agp is dead fuck u then coz i grown up with agp and im proud of me still using it

  • Geforce FX 5500 is a very strong card it can run Crysis on max out

    Geforce FX 5500 is 3x faster than GTX 480

    FX 5500 can run all the latest games on decent settings

    it also supports DX11 it has shadermodel 5.0

    HAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!

  • @farid6188 Wow, I didn't mean it that way, dumb shit. Why are you comparing an entry-level three year old card to today's most high-end cards? That show us how stupid you really are. Now go troll somewhere else please, troll.

  • @vangstaz Hey! Do u have any problem ? FX 5500 is from early 2003-2004

    Why u become unhappy? i think your DAD has made this card specially for you

    therefore you became angry..

    Calm down baby!!

  • @farid6188 Sorry baby! I didn't mean to make you cry! Idiot. Respect the card for what it is. Is it because people don't respect you for who you are baby?

  • @vangstaz I think i must upgrade my current HD 5770 to Geforce FX5500

    because FX 5500 has an incredible performance in gaming i like this card too much

    can't wait for this card. i think it will be able to run the upcoming games such as

    Crysis 2, Call of Duty Black OPS and HAWX 2 etc

  • @farid6188 I had a Nvidia 5500, it broke down on me after 3 years, it is so much faster than my overclocked Radeon 5770. The 5500 played everything I ran at it, all at blazing fast speeds. Where as the 5770 seems to eat games and spit them out as garbage.

    Also, the integrated Nvidia 6200 is faster than a 5970, just look at the numbers~

    You know what else is a good HDD company, Maxtor.

  • @silenceyouidiot r u serious or just joking?

  • @farid6188 In terms of comparison the boy know nothing about computers.

  • @vangstaz You obviously don't either, and it's a laugh to see someone call another person "boy" in that way. So you must be a parent then, have a job, your own house/apartment?

    You can't understand what I say, and obviously I have to type /sarcasm at the end of my comments so you can. High-end video cards:

    Nvidia: 5900, 6800, 7900, 8800, 9800, 295, 480.

    They were high-end cards, their still classed as high-end.

    a 5500=low end.

    I wasn't talking age, no matter what a high end is still high.

  • @silenceyouidiot So you're saying that this card is shit just because it's not meant for gaming? That's your opinion dude. Sorry. This card was great for most people who were looking into business but it certainly was NOT meant to compete with the higher-end cards.

    I'm not trying to "act cool." As a matter of fact, you believe that entry level cards are shit. I say that if a card gets you from A to B, it's GOOD. A bad card is when it's dead moron. Does the FX 5500 work? To hell it works.

  • @vangstaz It does work, but it overheated as well quite easily. Of course that problem stayed until the 7000 series. High end cards are meant to last, their supposed to be able to play games for a few years, even if it's not at max settings, where as a low end card can hardly play games on medium at the current time the card is released.

  • @silenceyouidiot Overheating? That goes the same to high-end cards as well dude. I have a used FX 5200 sitting in a box right now and I never had any overheating problems with it even when playing NFS Most Wanted for hours. To my PNY GeForce 9800GT? That thing does 75C on idle and up to 116C on load right after I unboxed it. It doesn't matter if the card is high-end or not. It depends on the quality of the card: GPU cooler, the cores architecture, case ventilation, and more.

  • @vangstaz Yes, but a non gaming card that can overheat easily when not gaming isn't the best card to pick. Back at the time this card was released, most people didn't go for 2-3 fans on their pc.

  • @silenceyouidiot Oh and just to let you know, respect computer components to what they are. This card was not meant to play games but I respect it for a fact that I can still get my work done with it. You wouldn't want people to disrespect you just because you weren't "born" to be superman, yes???

  • @vangstaz You're obviously using it right now, huh? What did you do with the card after replacing it? You originally were complaining about people saying their high end can beat this low end from 3 years ago. That you were going to laugh at high end cards in 3 years, comparing this to a high end card like it was for gaming back then. I argued about that, low end is low end, keep it that way. Their not for gaming, their SHIT at gaming , where a 5900 can still play games from last year.

  • @silenceyouidiot I had a card WORST than the FX 5500 and I don't complain, DO I? I'm using the RADEON HD 4850, which is indeed one of the fastest 4000 series cards from ATI. Yes, you can say that entry-level cards are shit at gaming, BUT most people are not gamers. Hence, I said "entry-level" cards. Do you understand what that means or do I have to define it in detail for you? It's like comparing cars. Does it run? Yes. And you can laugh at my HD 4850, go ahead. But remember it's 2 years old.

  • @vangstaz What's wrong with the 4850? It's a high end card, you don't seem to get that I'm not arguing about how high end cards aren't good at gaming. I don't understand the need for it if you said you had a 9800 though.

    You forgot what you said? You we're the one talking about laughing at outdated "high end" cards, while I was talking about why "low end" cards arent good at gaming, and why this video doesn't help anyone since it was a high priced low end card at the time.

  • @silenceyouidiot You guys are laughing at an entry-level card that's more than 3 years old while comparing it to today's top cards. Now THAT'S when I say I'll laugh at today's high-end cards in another 3 years when the next generation comes out. You know why? Because I'm playing ignorant just like you guys are. But in reality I will never say that a graphics card sucks, same goes to other components. When should I say that? When another idiot says it to me.

  • @vangstaz Why did you get a 4850 when you had a 9800?

  • @silenceyouidiot The 9800GT was a fantastic card. It ran all of the older games at the maximum possible settings in 1080p and some of the newer games at decent settings without sacrificing too much performance. But the card had served it's purpose, just like my FX 5200. I believed I could do better by getting a card that was closer to the performance of a 9800GTX, and that's where the HD 4850 came in. Plus, the HD 4850 ran 40C cooler than the 9800GT at both idle and load.

  • @farid6188

    Radeon 5770 is better

    Integrated will never beat a dedicated graphics card (well, not one that's ancient)

    Maxtor HDD's sucked hard, cost alot, and terrible transfer time. They would break after a few months, that's why Seagate now owns them.

  • @silenceyouidiot

    maxtor?? those assholes who made graphics chips that were incompatible with all the Worms games? fuck them.

  • @farid6188 troll

  • There's nothing wrong with a card like this. This card IS NOT BUILT FOR HIGH-END GAMING like many of you idiots are saying.

    "Oh that card sucks, eat my GTX 480"

    Shut the fuck up already. Hence, date and model number. If you idiots who think you guys are so smart, go to school and learn how to read and compare because you guys know NOTHING about computers because of your ignorance.

    -

    I will be the first to laugh at your GTX 480 and HD 5970 in another 3 years, watch.

  • @vangstaz I couldnt agree more

  • @vangstaz The 480 and 5970 isn't a low entry card. You already failed to make your point by saying "NOT BUILT FOR HIGH-END GAMING" when both of those cards are.

    Nobody is laughing at the 5900 ultra, in fact it was a great card at the time and still can play games from 2007-2008.

  • @silenceyouidiot Are you fucking stupid? I clearly said that the FX 5500 ISN'T HIGH-END. I never said that the GTX 480 or the HD 5970 were low-end... well in another three years then yes. You guys can't seem to compare graphics cards because all I hear and see are dumb asses comparing low-end older generation cards to modern high-end cards which make absolutely no fucking sense what so ever. You guys are smart. *sarcasm

  • @vangstaz Obviously you are one to call people names and try to act, "cool."

    The 5500 is a low entry card, which is why it is considered shit, even when it first came out. A 480 and a 5970 are high end graphic cards, which were meant for gaming. The 5500 was never meant for gaming, so you are telling me you hate everyone for laughing at a non-gaming card for those who want to play games, but you would laugh at a high-end gaming card later? I said nobodies laughing at the Nvidia 5900 even today.

  • Stupid kids just saying shit it arent gaming graphic card, and look the upload date

  • nice hair. haha

  • Dude that looks exactly like the geforce ti4400, but ti4400 actully was good haha back then its agp to. PIece of shit

  • I got NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5700 is this better than 5500?

  • This was made before 07 this was just uploaded 07, besides, this card was great when it came out, lol.

  • lol you guys think this was reasent. this was back in 07 dude kmon

  • how does he keep his hair like that!?!?!?!?! its freaking me out......

  • Mhhh, I got this card nearly 6 years ago, I loved it cause I could play call of duty, lego starwars, and what not. Tried to play half life 2, managed to play it on med settings at 1280x1024...which wasn't bad at the time. I lagged in doom 3 even at low though D:

    Upgraded to an integrated 4200, and it was nearly x5 better.

  • im sure this will run fullscreen pr0n without problems

  • wtf i would rather have an on board gpu then this worthless peice of shit@

    D: D:<

  • who dont know how to run old games on this video just dont know nothing about computer yes?

    i play with no lags your 2005 and under games idiots

    but this summer i am going to buy asus radeon hd4650

  • I still have this card with 128mb on my old p4. It still runs perfect with no problem.

  • it nids repair!hahaha,fx5500 is like a beginner!

  • i have a Geforce GTX 260

  • hey guys i have a graphics geforce 5500 fx i cant run spiderman web of shadows

  • Flight sim lmao... more like plowing the maid.

  • guys i have an hp pavilion a706n year 2004 nd i have 64mb of intregratged video memory nd i wanted to know if i should get this i want to play games lyk runes of magic on high can i do tht with this card

  • yes it`s old but if you like your old pc (such as me)

    and you have something horrible like 440 mx you

    will love it (just like me). :D

  • @hellrazorforever dude, how can something be more horrible than fx 5500?:D

  • PNY Verto GeForce FX 5200

  • @notraxz trust me there are cards that alot horrible than the fx 5500. I had 440 mx , radeon 7000(or something) and fx 5500.The 440 mx just truely sux **s.

  • @hellrazorforever not much difference between these 3..still they cannot run fukin anything...

  • this is the absolutely worst video card in the whole history of the world. IT CANT EVEN RUN FLIGHT SIMULATOR 2004(YES,A FRIGGIN 2004 GAME) NORMALLY.

    even gf 2 series onboard vga would fuck this one..

    screw nvidia

  • @gxomc no don't screw nvidia screw THIS card I have a 9600GT and I can play anything on max so..

  • @ArchMageFarnos then try crysis lol

    From what I've done in research (Mainly chatting with other Gamers)

    the 9600GT can hardly run crysis while the 8800GT or 8400GS run it perfectly. haha

  • @kawaiifreak860 can play crysis on everything high with no lag... so that's good for me

  • You are joking right?

    Well, see it by yourself, look for "9600 gt crysis" or something like that.

    BTW runs 20-30fps on my PC, all very high........

  • like I said it runs like shit.

    50-60 would be good that is shit.

  • Sorry I didn't mention I have a crappy 2.2ghz dual core CPU, and 1.5mb 667mhz ram?, not to mention the HDD.

    You can only get 50-60fps on crysis with a High profile video card, and you CAN'T compare it with a mid-profile card

    Look I'm not being disrespectful, but you should be limited to speak only about your experiences. And not to what you see/hear.

  • @asc64642 you should learn to submit to the dark lord.

  • @gxomc

    I have this card but I can barely run Battlefield 2 on Low.

    A 2005 game...

  • damn i just found out that im having the oldest,junkiest video card :((((((

  • lol this card is from caveman times.

  • best game playable with this card resident evil 4 but low details, is OOOOLLDDDD

  • @edwardrock619

    wtf! *ROFL*! your so genius man im really proud of you now tell everyone about that with a smile im sure everyone will be happy to know that from you xD

  • .... Why the DVI? its not like it gonna run crysis in a 1900X1200 resolution! Its only if you have a really old computer and want it to speed it up like to run CS 1.6 or something... and this video its from 2007. Why?

  • this card is WACK! but does anyone know where i can get the latest driver for it??

  • @soljer85 wack as in awesome or a piece of crap? I Need to KNOW. i'ma get it for christmas :3

  • What is the best game this video card can pull?!

  • I have it too but its much bigger and red.

  • I need a PCI-card for a HTPC (mini-ITX, so no AGP/PCI-E)

    Will this manage to run 720p material? Or maybe 1080p?

  • i bought one today for 2 bucks

  • ebay?

  • hey i have geforce 5500 i install my gta 4 but the graphic is slow

  • But the game works right?

  • @edwardrock619 hahahahah

  • i have that FX 5500, it has a silver heatrsync that covers the GPU and the onboard RAM

  • I have the same card, and I have a problem, if someone can help me. I tried to install the latest drivers available for it which is 175.19 WHQL. The problems is that after I install and restart the computer, it won't run. Like I didn't installed any drivers in the first place, I have to revert to the latest driver 169.21, that works for me.

    What is the problem? On the nvidia site it says that fx5500 is supported.

  • did u download it from there site. and did u get the right driver for the right OS.

  • lolz this guy has to be the worst marketing dude ever haha

  • This video made me laugh, Hard..

    "Load up flight simulator or something" LOL AND GET A NICE DECENT FLOW OF 2.5 FPS.

  • @slowsilv3r on high if you put on low it wil do 25 30 fps

  • FX 5500 IS A AGP OR A PCI?

  • there are both versions

  • you can find it on PciE and AGP..

    The point of view version is pci :D

  • @AhmedThaking

    damn AGP slots and their varying voltages. why couldn't they just wait for PCI-e. AGP cards are much cheaper now, because of their confusing standards. an old PCI card can cost twice as much as AGP card with a similar speed.

  • @rebelanarch

    I mean the PCI is newer than the AGP ..

    I'm not sure about it either..

  • can this card run nba 2k9 or 2k10?

  • Comment removed

  • Probably not, but I think a 50 $ card could

  • do you think the HD 3200 (IGP) can run 2k10?

  • fx 5500 vs 6200 who won?

  • 6200

  • this video card is awsome ive got it. everyone says its sucks well grow up! Most of u are americans anyway. which most of americans talk and comment like little immature babys.

  • awesome card?hahahahahahah ROFL! the crap can't even run 2004 games normally

    im not american and i have this card

  • wow i see this and then i see the HD5870!

  • this is true man...i feel that.. =)

  • dude ... when was this vid taken ? 1960 ? cuz when i watch this vid my thaughts are :

    "How much do they pay him to put a good word on this peace of crap?"

    "Does he even know what he's talkin about ?"

    "My grandma knows this vid-card sucks and he doesn't???"

  • Dude chill its funny and yea vid is realy old so...

  • @kebubas the video is made in 2006/7 and i have that same card (128MB Version) And it still works perfectly

  • @TheBoksera631 hm .. 2006 ? why then it can't run GTA San Andreas on VERY VERY low although it was released on 2005 ? That's mystical ... -.-

  • @kebubas Ive played GTA San Andreas So Many Times with no Problem and it was released in 2004

  • @TheBoksera631 I somehow played SA on 3 ghz 1 gb ram and fx5500 with 7-12 fps ... straaaange ... -.-

  • @kebubas And I Somehow Played SA on 2.40GHZ Celeron Codename "Prescot" 512MB RAM with 25-30 FPS ...Its A Cristmas Miracle ... -,-
