9600pro For Sale at NewEgg $189

I expect the 9600pro to take over the Ti4200 price point fairly soon so think about $120-$140. If I were buying now I'd buy a 9500pro.

Bought 9500 Pro from NewEgg! Will I be happy??

The 9500pro is quite a bit faster than the 8500dv.

Anyplace to pre-order 9600 Pro?

No actually its faster in Splinter Cell, Quake 3 and Commanche 4 than the 9500pro. Plus it seems to have excellent overclocking potential.

GF4 Ti 4200 OR wait for a 9700PRO

You can get a plain 9700 for about $220. So if you were thinking of buying a Ti4200 for $130 then obviously the 9700 is a better deal. However if you're getting a Ti4200 for like $80, it would be hard to pass that up.

For the Canucks Staples 8500LE $85CDN

Yes its a lot better, I went from the original radeon to a 8500le and the difference was startling especially in newer games like Bf1942, Mafia, etc.

My Best Buy Had Geforce FX 5800 ULTRA in stock YESTERDAY!

This could be the only videocard that scares small children and animals. If you have rats that may be a plus.

Optimizing R9700 Pro - Advice needed!

I'd play 1024x768 at 4x Anti-Aliasing with 8x Ansiotropic with V-Sync turned on. If I had a LCD I'd do 1280x1024 w 2x Anti-Aliasing and 8x Ansiotropic and V-Sync.

Anand's FX5600 & 5200 review

Nvidia is in a really crappy position do you keep the Ti4200's pumping out, because lets face it if its between a $120 ti4200 or a $149 5200u or $200 5600u most people would go for the Ti4200. But if you do that then you kill your FX line of cards because you won't sell enough to get decent...

Best Video card for around $100

Spend an extra $50 and get an Radeon 9500pro as you can see from the latest reviews its beating the 5600ultra in almost every situation.

5200 & 5600 benchmarks at ET

The 5200 ultra is a $149 card and in most non-FSAA situations especially hi-res it gets clobbered by the Ti4200. Nvidia really screwed up across the board this time.
