I have the above video card, and am playing AOE III. The video is so jerky, its almost unplayable. Do I need a bigger video card, or is my fx5200 not installed properly? Thanks anyone.

you can try turning down the game's video setting. If that doesn't work, then yes, get a newer card, with more video RAM. I just bought a few games that were very choppy with my FX5600 256MB card. I upgraded to a 256MB PCI Express card, new MB and AMD proc., and now the games play flawlessly. The newer high-end games are requiring the latest hardware in order to be played at the high video level.
