i used to have a 64mb Radeon 7500le and it ran planetside fine. Except for the rare time when 200 people where on screen, then i got about 1 fps. Then i purchased a Radeon 9800 pro, and I get about 8 fps in those 200 person battles.

Your card is fine, but be warned, planetside's game engine sucks, and you will get low fps in certain situations no matter what

NO! Dont get the 9200. If you get something, shell out a little more cash for atleast the 9500 pro or 9600 pro. It will be worth it. with the 9600 pro iget like 15-20 fps in huge battles, 30-45 in regular battles and about 60-70 sitting in sanc. you will be happy that u spent the extra money.
