    the 9200 is standard at C249mhz and M400mhz

    Depends what you use your computer for, if it's just 2d stuff (word processing, internet etc) either one would do. If your gaming I'd suggest a upgrade. Personally I'd go with the 9200.

    clock speed isn't the only thing that decides how fast a card is.
    They're both lousy for the latest games. If you pay a bit more and get a gf4TI or radeon 9600 or something in that class, you'd probably be a lot better off.
