Which Card is Better?

Would one of these PCI cards off this list-

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=1603&Nav=|c:319|&Sort=0&Recs=10

Outperform this card, which I was planning on buying-

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814143110

or would the second one be just as good.

    The GeForce 6200 is just a step above Onboard Video.  This one is definetly the best.  Its a step up from the bottom tier cards, and its a fairly rescent generation.  Its also not half-hieght exclusive.

    Haha I was just about to post that one too and ask if it was the best.  The review that said it saved that guys marriage made me a believer, even though im way too young to be getting married, it was an extreme statement.

    I just wish newegg or somewhere more trusted sold that one, ive heard mixed things about tigerdirect, and Ive never ordered anything from them before.

    EDIT: Whats it mean by "the low profile bracket is sold seperatley"?  Am I going to need that?

    For thin cases, they have what is called a Low-Profile Bracket.  You shouldn't need it though.  Tigersdirect isn't that bad, it usually plays second to newegg.  It has a few good deals that are even better then newegg from time to time.  They usually ship slower though.
