Dont even think about it, especially 5600s. Id get a 9600pro or maybe even a ti4200 if i was u.

A friend of mine has the Hercules Radeon 9800 Pro, awesome card.

Im probably going to buy a 9800 Pro in a couple months or so speaking of new cards..

You might be processor limited at many resolutions because of that... I'd suggest something midrange... GeForce 5900 XT would be a great value, you can get one for right about $200 I think? Radeon 9700 Pro if you can still find one or if you can find one for cheap a Radeon 9500 Pro. I'd stay away from the Radeon 9600 or GeForce FX 5700 series (unless you can find them for dirt cheap, even then a 9600 XT or 5700 Ultra only, the 9800 is better than the 5700).

Hold on for just a bit...

Get the R420 when it comes out, the 9800XT can generally hold its own against the NV40, albeit with either 1 notch down in resolution or less AA, but that's it.
