GeForce FX 5500 upgrade from GeForce Ti 4600??

[GoinsDeep]

I have a GeForce Ti 4600 and the fan died on it. I didn't notice it started locking up and giving me some crazy video problems. I replaced the fan, but I'm pretty sure the heat before did some permanent damage.

I'm looking for something that is at least comparable to the 4600 and was looking at the FX 5500. How does this compare?

The 4600 is a better performer. The 5500 is just a warmed over 5200. You'd get better performance from a 5700 or 5700LE.
