    very very similar performance, with the 5700 edging ahead possibly, but only to a small degree

    id say go for the 9600XT because you save $30

    For the price of the 5700ultra you can get a 5900xt with 256bit mem and its faster than both the cards.

    My 02c

    169bux shiped. FYI if you do some reserch on the web you will find that this model card brocke the fx5900 record for xt's on 3dmark after olt modding at an amazing 600+ core and 1gig+ mem after voltmodd. Just google fx5900xt volt mod.

    Another 02c

    thats 4c now?

    Best value card IMO at this time is the 9800 pro. But with the advent of the 6600 series, in both $150 and $200 flavors that easily beat the crap out of even the 9800 XT, Id say wait and get the 6600 GT when it comes out.
