What about overclocking this card? Would it then approach the Ultra's speed?
I am soon getting a Dell Dimension XPS which is coming with a stock 5200
card and I am going to put the 5600 in it.

THX in advance.


Should ask before ya buy...

256mb 5600 is no faster than 128mb version... a little slower than
5600Ultra.
