Geforce 5600XT, and if you look around a bit, you will see it benches than the Ti 4200 in nearly all tests.

i might end up getting that 5600xt, as i dont really have a way of getting james_bond_rulez the cash easily. well we'll see what happens.

Righto, well, if you are going to go with the 5600, I have heard that the xt&#39;s are actually crappier than the regulars when it comes to Nvidia, of course its the opposite when it comes to ATI.

yeah get the 5600xt, it&#39;s better for the same amount of money

i am giving my card to my friend anyway, who is building a computer to sell on ebay. This is a much needed conponent he wants anyways and can sell a better price in a system.

Looks like a good choice.

Look for any free stuff you get with video cards too on newegg, I got a case badge last time I order d.

They wrap it up like its glass or something to.

Get the shittiest card I ever had.&nbsp; The Geforce 5200.&nbsp;


I say just add a hundred bucks and get the radeon 9600xt.&nbsp; I did.&nbsp; You get half life 2 with it anyway&nbsp; B) .


You can&#39;t buy much with a hundred these days.&nbsp; Yea I guess the geforce 5200 is ok if you have enough ram.&nbsp; I still have problems with games on my radeon 9600xt(but only at extremely high detail and maybe some AA).&nbsp; I have 384mb of ram, need to get some more&nbsp;

For less than a lot than 100&#036;

I bought the GeForce 5200 and it kicks ass with 512MB of RAM (and a P4 2.66ghz CPU).

I haven&#39;t found a game that I can&#39;t play yet.

Yes, but an FX5600 kicks the ass of the FX5200 all over.

[Spindulik]

If it were less than &#036;100.00, then it would really kick ass even more.

Actually the problem is that other manufacturers (not nVidia) are using the XT for their names. However, the actual "nVidia" name for those cards is SE (5600SE).
