Replacing an nVidia FX5600XT

Just bought an 5600XT card today -- and it's awful. It feels slower than my
5200. So it's going back (the shop (or the receipt) didn't state it was an
XT - so I should get a replacement or money back - right?).

So I'm looking for a better card. For £80 I can get a proper 5600 (from
another shop). Or an ATI 9600 EZ Pro for £89 or an 9600 Pro for £102 or an
FX5700 for £109.

Any idea which one I should go for? I plan to return it tomorrow so a quick
reply is appreciated.

Cheers.

what about a 9600 XT these are supposed to be good performance.

Get the 9600Pro for the price... the 9600ez (non Pro or Se who knows
what it is) isn't worth it.

5600XT can be slower than a 5200.. especually if its the 64bit
varient!

Nvidia = too many bloody models.
