The 5700 ULTRA is for gaming (medium gaming anyway), any card below a 5900 or 9700 series with more than 128MB of RAM is useless, don't be sucked in by buzzwords. If you haven't gotten the card yet, I would SERIOUSLY consider looking at this card instead, it beats it by a HUGE margain. And I believe you'll find the price not so huge to jump over Newegg.com
EDIT: And if you're a noise freak like I am, get this card, it's the quietest performance card available.
MSI has an 28db and lower fan, but my system was quiet already before and I can notice the fan. So if mine is supposed to be one of the quietest, the Asus will make some noise.
yep, most all video cards make a lot of noise unless they're passively cooled, or have special lower RPM fans like MSI does. My PNY 5700 Ultra fan is a whiney beast (But it keeps the card cool at least)
