Default Choosing a graphic card

I'm stuck in a hole of graphic cards :P.

Anyways I've ordered a Sapphire 9600xt but it's
on back order so it's taking so long to get here
(3 weeks +) So I was thinking I might go and get
my cash back and go buy a different card or something.

So can you people help me choose which one is better
from these? (All cards are 128mb)

Powercolor Radeon 9600pro/Nvidia fx5700

Sapphire Radeon 9600xt/Msi fx5700

Thanks.

(advance through the following twelve or so pages for more benchmark
results)

I'd opt for the ATI built 9600XT 128MB

The Sapphire Tech 9600XT would be a close second.

I wouldnt bother with either when you can get a sapphire 9800pro for near
enough the same money, that will blow both of those cards away.
