i am thinking to buy a CHAINTECH GeForce FX 5600XT Video Card, 256MB DDR, 128-bit, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP but i want to know if this videocard is worth 125 bucks and if you have any experience or problems with that videocard i would like to know because i want a good videocard with a low price please help me decide
Are you talking canadian or us dollars?
Cuz it would be better getting a regular 5600 (the XT is the 5600SE, which is a little worse than the regular 5600)

That Chaintech is 95, a regular 5600 and 128ddr. As I said on other thread, memory isn't what matters.
what about this XFX GeForce FX 5600 Video Card, 128MB DDR, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP for 99 bucks
He showed you a good chaintec one before...the 5600 is better then the 5600XT or SE. Get the 5600 regular..its alright.
well this one´s a 5600 not an XT and at list i got more specs than the other page

I haven't heard much of Chaintech. Have heard some good things about XFX though. The card looks nice :)
How much are you willing to pay?
a regular 5200 would beat a 5600xt so no its not a good deal, you should look at a ati 9600. same price as 5600 but most ppl in here will tell you it performs better
the XFX GeForce FX 5600 Video Card, 128MB DDR, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP its 99 bucks and is a good one but where can i find an ati 9600 for about the same price
The 9600 is better then the 5600 , benchmark wise, which is the most important thing you can look at when comparing graphics cards. You can get the 9600 for $110. Or you can get the 9600Pro for $140. The pro would be much better for just $30. Out of the 9600 and the 5600 the 9600 wins though.
Edit: Fixed
can you link me to one of those benchmark that the 5600 beats the 9600 ? and benchmark isnt everyhting....its how it actually performs. every sytem is different so the benchmark isnt always true either..if you look for one card on google, im sure you find benchmark w/ different scores....on site, the 9600 does really bad on some games....on another site, the 9600 does decent to great.
Here.
and DOH...got my numbers mixed...where I said 9600 I meant to say 5600 haha...oh well..Ill change it.
