However, it should be mentioned that my 5200 doesn't display N64 roms very well. It might be the emulator I'm using (Project64), but I've noticed similar graphical artefacts in other games too.
The bitch of a problem with the 5200 is that it's hard to know which drivers to use. The current version being 71.84, but that causes masses of problems with many things. Most people roll back to 66.93 (or 66.94 for 9x systems) in such cases, but those drivers cause problems as well, especially if you're trying to run in 800x600 resolution.
That said, the next card I'll buy will probably be an Nvidia, just one that wouldn't cause so much grief.

When in mortal danger,
When beset by doubt,
Run in little circles,
Wave your arms and shout.
