The GeForce FX 5200 is a very, very bad videocard.

Maybe that's why it was so cheap
Looking on newegg, I see 9800SE, 9800 PRO and 9800 XT.
XT is definitely a kick in the crotch money-wise, so it's between the PRO or the SE softmodded. Should I take the chance that when I mod the SE, I could end up with artifacts or worse? I've read that with proper modding and overclocking, the SE becomes an XT.
How easy is it to replace the heatsink on a graphics card? I'm eyeing that Artic Cooling fan
here Also, how can I check my power supply?
By the way, what's the chance that a local pc store will give me cash(yeah right) or store credit for my old card? I don't have the box, but I have the drivers, instructions, and (most importantly) the anti-static bag. Hey, maybe I'll get $50?
