Is the ASUS RADEON X600PRO 128M a good card to get?

ASUS RADEON X600PRO 128M PCI-E, TV-OUT, DVI, DDR RAM-$239
Is it a good card?

 

[Synthos]

I'm curious about this too.. What's the verdict?

Only marginally better performance than a 9600XT.

Best off getting an AGP 6800 (no frills one) or a 9800 Pro.

I love how they say the 5900 is a mid-range Gfx card. I guess they forgot it was meant to be the top end.

just get a 9800 pro, much better.

Yeah, go for the MSI 9800 pro 128mb, it has 256bit memory and the R360 core, similar price to the 5900. I own one and they are great.

umm, guys.... not sure if you noticed... but the x600 is a PCI-E card.... if he's looking at a pci card he either a) doesn't know the difference, or b) has a PCI-E mobo....
