A very small improvement. A 5600's performance is in between that of the
GF3 ti500 and the GF4ti 4200. If you turn AA on then the 5600 will smoke them both. It also has DX9 features. Dave "Simon Mallatratt" wrote in message ...

... HI I have a Leadtek Geforce 3 Ti 500 meg card......this card is very good "500" does not indicate the amount of memory on the card. You probably have 64MB or 128MB. 500 indicates that you have the best GF3 card though. I do think you would see an improvement with the 5600. Your system can handle one at least. Maybe not "double" speed but you can enable more stuff like FSAA and anisotropic filtering without taking such a performance hit.

HI I have a Leadtek Geforce 3 Ti 500 meg card......this card is very good Would there be a noticable difference if i brought a Leadtek FX 5600 256m card my Spec I've got the same card (and a XP2500) and I've done a bit of research about upgrading. My two choices are either of the mid-ranges FX5600 or ATI9[5/6]00; from the benchmarks I've seen the FX5600 seems to outdo the ATI by a bit, it does cost $30-40 more though. Definitely you'll see a difference, in numbers at least, in Quake3 your FPS would go from ~250 to 330 (guessing, you get my point though). You might not really see any difference in games until the new DX9 games come out. Then you'll be real glad you got one. I'm personally waiting until games like HL2 and Doom3 actually hit the shelves though and I hear what real people have to say about different cards with them. -- "I've got blisters on me fingers" Steve [Inglo] |

Yes, if you get a FX5600 you will notice a difference, a positive one. If
you get one of the 5600s with the flipchip based GPU (5600 Ultra) with 256Mb of RAM you will notice a BIG difference, especially with that Athlon XP 3000+ CPU to push it along. If you enable all of the antialiasing goodies it will run circles arouond your Ti500 or a Ti4200. Ron "Simon Mallatratt" wrote in message ...
