Pretty much a fact now I guess, since the HL2 thread pointed it out, that the 5200 wont run Dx9 in HL2, you can force it to but that supposedly makes the game very unenjoyable and almost unplayable. So I dont think its possible ya getting medium with one

Save your money for a new upgrade. Not worth the purchase IMO. | |
