I have been given a graphics card which is a few years old. It's a FX5700LE 256MB . I already have a Radeon 9550se 256MB.

Which is better??

Turn it off, wait a while, turn it back on again.

The general specs are fairly close, but the 9550SE uses 64-bit memory...your 5700LE *probably* uses 128-bit memory. The memory difference should make for much better gaming performance. Since it was free, why not just give it a try?

Here's the specs:
