Exactly what they said above. Generally the 64mb ram on the ti4200 cards is faster than 128mb. In this case 128mb on a 5200 is just marketing and I am sure the ram is crap in comparison.
I have a ti4200 64mb card in my rig and I am happy w/ it. Very good card for the price!

I'm not convince yet with suggestion to buy GF4 Ti4200 instead of FX5200.
Which one is faster?
GF4 Ti4200 8x 128mb does 305/600
FX5200 128mb does 420/520 ( I think this one is better )
Unless Nvidia cut some more pipelines in its fx5200.
What do you think??
Later production of FX5200 has 500MHz DDR type of memory, and
I think it will OC to 600MHz DDR easy.

I have not seen anyone here post a good review let alone suggest buying a 5200!
The 5200 is a crippled card all around. Nvida released it in their fx line up but this card is equivelant of their old MX line up.
It is a marketing card that performs badly...they buy it for the FX name and get MX results! The Ti4200 is the better buy in this case. I am sure there will be a few replies to your post...get ready!
EDIT: Apologies..I just read yout part about later additions to the 5200 line up..these I am unfamiliar w/. i am curious to know if they perform any bettter. My guess is they are still low end cards and I have yet to see a 5200 card in a Mid Range VGA round up review...and definately not a high end line up.

The ti4200 wails on the 5200 in every aspect. Buy a FX5900nu for under $200 and laugh at both cards. But out of the two I wouldn't even consider the 5200.

Lets put it this way. I've seen a GF4 4200 break 21,000 in 3DMark2001
The highest known 5200 score (hell, 5200 ultra, even) is a mere 14,238 .

And stock the best 5200's get maybe 7.5k and the 4200 hits 11.5
with a midrange system. 11k oce'd for a 5200 is not the norm!!.
In most cases 8.5k oc'ed.
