For the same price tag, I think the 5200 would be a better choice than the 9200... when it comes to gaming.
Never considered buying a 5200.
I put an eye on the 8500LE/9100 and some time later on 9600/5600.
9600 had nicer OC and better shaders.

And i agree about the 92x0 series. A Gf4MX with simple shader support.
