hey i know i have been buging you people about how and what i should get for sys....ok im buying a computer you know that..heheh I have my sys sepcs all sorted out but the Video Card.. now can someone please tell me the difference between the GefroceFX5900Utra and The Radion 9800 Pro. Are they both a 256mb card? and if they are both a 256 card am i going to notice a bid difference in fps and visuals in game? There is a big price difference between them so this is also going to influnece my final pick. But any help you can give me is much apreashed (i know i cant spell that word ohwell)

the 5900 is a 256 card, the 9800 pro comes in 128 and 256. I would suggest the 9800 pro. ATI makes great cards, and the 9800 pro chip is the best on the market. as for price, it is cheaper (if you buy the 128 version). As for fps, you wont see a difference between the 2, but i would suggest the 9800 pro. it does run faster too.

All except that 5900 does come in 128 versions also and can be found in the $290 area. Both cards are excellent.

either way, you're still gonna get bad FPS in the big battles.
