i am running an Asylum GeForce FX 5200 256mb AGP graphics card. The box says that and the card itself says that also. But when i install it with the cd then i go to the properties it says GeForce5500. Whats up with that?

60 hertz is just fine. You can set it higher if you want, but you won't notice much, if any, of a difference
