5900XT looks very impressive
http://techreport.com/reviews/2003q4...t/index.x?pg=1
I have been looking around at cards for $200 and so far the 5900XT looks good. Call Of Duty comes shipped also. Right now Newegg has the EVGA for $189. Looks like it handles the 9600XT in most everything. I am hoolding off buying to see what else comes along. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Newegg doesn't have the 5900XT, I believe you are looking at the 5900SE

XT for ATI = HIGH end, they were first to annonce such card namings... Nvidia has ADDED XT for LOW-END... You can get a PLAIN 5900 for about $200 that performs pretty good. Nvidia - out to **** off more of their user base. -- Remember when real men used Real computers!? When 512K of video RAM was a lot! Death to Palladium & WPA!!

Lower clock rates, both GPU and memory; flimsier heatsinks. Look for a 5900/128 non-Ultra. Should be about the same price. John Lewis --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I got the Gainward 5900 'Ultra' (not an Nvidia 'Ultra') with 2.2nsec memory
last week. Runs solid at 460/960. Very nice for $229. "Norm" wrote in message news:rUuDb.8413$WQ3.733@lakeread05...
