........... get the ATI, it depends on what your doing though, if your just gonna play like medium graphiced games then just get the 5500, and if you wanna play HL2 or source get the 9600 pro

Pro

Go pro if you have the Dough... lol hah I made a rhyme (thats a first)...
oh and dont bother getting that x600 you were talkin about they are PCI-E.

Ewww...X600's suck. ATI isn't even making them anymore. The X700 has taken it's position to battle against the 6600, but the 6600 GT easily whips it's ass.

 

[ACES WILD]

no he didnt know they were PCI-e he just saw one on newegg and said look! theres an x in front of it it must be good! lol

 

[alvino]

LOL Yeah, I kinda see that...
