Which Geforce FX 5600?

Dempsey

Im drawn between these two Graphics Cards. The Asus V9560 GeForce FX 5600 256MB DDR and the Gainward GeForce FX 5600 256MB DDR 3,6ns . The reason im asking is that I cant get the proper specs for the Gainward one. Could anyone tell me which one is better. I think the Asus is better but I cant be sure unless i know the spec of the gainward.

Which 5600 says you? Neither says me!

Great features and FSAA, DX9 support etc. but they've been known to underperform even GF4MX's.

I'd buy a cheapo GF4Ti for the mo' (until DX9 is the norm) and wait for nVidia to sort themselves out or for Ati 9600/9800 Pro's to drop in price.

Actually when i think about it, is there much point of getting a 8x AGP Card when I only have a 4x AGP Slot. Would I be better off getting a 4x one?

most cards today are now 8x i've one and i've only got a 4x slot plus since i've a dell my AGP appiture (sp.) size is limited to 64mb whereas i have a 128mb card

The arpeture size can be adjusted in the BIOS. Look in video configuration it should go up to 256Mb.
