I wasa big ATi fanboy unill i got my fx 5900 se its 189 but its def worth it
Hmm... Right now for games like Far Cry and other DX9 games, the 9800P will work better but all the other games, your 5900 will play just fine. I have a 5900NU (flashed to 5950U) and have no problems in Far Cry or the other DX9 games but I have done tweaking so that I can play it as high as I can and still make it look good. The beta 60.72 drivers own aswell... They greatly increased DX9 performance for me.

well basically what he did is what i did I had a 5900 ultra flashed it to 5950 Plays games just fine but temps got a little high. So I truthfully am running a 9800 pro 128 works fine DX9 games like ati cards better anyways BUT if you have the extra case get a 5950 but if you dont get a 9800 pro
And yes my sig is incredibly outdated!
