I decided that I was just going to buy a video card from bestbuy since I had a giftcard and didnt want to risk buying online and recieving an OC'd card.

At Bestbuy, they have the 128mb Radeon 9700 pro for $299 and the 256mb FX5600 for $249. Which card should I go with? I couldn't find the a comparison between the two.

Thanks

the 9700 is a much better card, here is a link.

5600

the radeon 9600 is much faster (with better IQ) than this card and a 9700 is faster than the 9600.

the 9700 is superior, you cant really compair them. the 9700 is ATIs highend and the 5600 is nvidia midrange solution.

You even had to ask.
The 5600 of course, just joking, the 9700 for sure.
