yeah right, those "pipeles" are just fancy terms.
the 9600XT would SLAUGHTER the 5900 in ANY test, not those "benchmarks" you kids look at today.
/sarcasm
buy a 5900NU and flash it to a 5950Ultra if you feel ballsy.
way better than that POS ati card for the same price
surely you meant "/sarcasm off", right? i mean.. no one would be clueless enough to say the 9600 is anwhere near as fast as the 5900, would they? or the "pipeline" comment? that's so absurd you couldn't be serious, could you? so there is no reason to buy the 9800 series over the 9600 series either? since the "pipelines" mean "nothing"?
nah.. no one one could be that clueless. i shouldn't even think that.. had to be a typo.
btw, there is no need to flash anything, most of them will run ultra speed bu just adjusting 2 sliders.
fyi to the previous poster, it's not "256-bit pipelines", rather a 256-bit memory interface (which effectively doubles the memory bandwidth of the gpu compared to a "128-bit" interface, or data path).

yes,
/ always means eniding hte context such as
<body> </body> in html....it was a very sarcastic comment

Why do people brag so much about having their cards running at speeds of a higher card when the performance will not be the same. They act as if though it does. Why? Why? Why? It's cool that you got those speeds but dont act like its just as good as the better card because there are other things that make a card better rather than clock speeds.
