Its a helluva lot better card than the 5700... can be clocked to pro speeds fairly easily as well, as the current batch has SamSung memory.

For example, in 3dmark2001.. A 5700.. compares with a 9600XT.. And would get you around 13k-14k on a AMD2200+... whereas, a 9800np wil get you near 16.5k.. big diff for £4

Buy now tho, they'l be sold out soon.
i think im one of them people that buys a ford or a vauxhall
i cant really get my head round switching from nvidia lol
