5900 128MB, but you might want to wait and see how the 6600GT performs first. It should be in roughly the $200 price range as well, and from early reports, it looks like it's gonna be a winner.

Edit: why are you scoping out PCIe cards anyway? It doesn't really look like your rig is ready for that yet...

Well, so what are your current rig specs? If you just spent a boatload on a P4 540-560, I wouldn't get any of the cards you asked about... I would wait until the X800's and 6800's are out in the PCIe variety. Either way, I would hold out for at least the 6600GT.

Anyone have a link handy to the X600 XT's benches?

Edit - Nevermind, found them at FiringSquad. It ranges from 10 frames to 1 frame faster than the 9600 XT. :(

x600 is overpriced garbage. The 6600s will put them to shame, and in their appropriate price range.
