I think I'd get the 9600 Pro. Most are saying that the extra memory on the 256 cards isn't worth it. You may also want to take a look at this post: http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.p...threadid=67515

It seems the FX cards are not even DX9 compliant. I don't know about you but I wouldn't spend a large sum of money on a card that can't even take advantage of DX9.

9600!!!! It's much better than the 256 mb 5600. Dont let the 256mb get you- that card lacks the power to use all of that properly. The ATI will do much better.
