I've semi-recently built an older PC out of a Sony VAIO motherboard, though I bought the wrong GPU- I meant to get a GeForce 7600 GT and instead received a 5700LE (and my insistence to avoid making an eBay account stops me from returning it)
Today I've checked another old PC a friend gave me that has capacitor issues, and found what I think is a GeForce 6200A inside.

Outside of the dirt on the back side it looks to be in good shape, the capacitors didn't look like they were bulging, but it has me wondering.
would it be worth replacing the 5700 LE with this? I'm trying to run Windows Vista on the system I built (in spite of the Pentium 4 3.06) since I like how Vista looks and feels, and although the 5700LE does work I would prefer getting a better card regardless (if this is one).
or, is this an even worse card like I originally thought with how it's only 1 generation newer but several tiers lower?
Just a silly lil person in a very big world.
