    I would love to see a list of games that generally run well on unmodified fireGL v5200 and a list of games that hate this card.

    The v5200 is a version of the x1600, the v5250 is a version of the x1700. Those cards will run games about 5-10% slower than their brother/sister-cards.

    But I heard that they are very unfriendly to openGL and possibly a few DirectX games.
