It is like choosing turd and poo, both are exactly the same i'd go with the 5200 for support of BF2 on low graphics depends, as their isn't a whole lotta difference between the two literally... You could buy either and it wouldn't matter..

I'd go the nvidia option, because it is DX 9 built unlike the 9250 which is only DX8.1 which is a big problem now....

but i found this which will give a bit more of a performance boost it is a fx5500 which has a bit more on a 5200 a tad more expensive though

Or even better yet a..... 5700LE which is possible overclockable here it is for under 100
