I just bought a gainward 5600 ultra golden sample to replace my old Ti4600. I was a bit dissapointed with the performance gain, mainly none. My 3dmark 01 scores went from 14100, to 13300. Obviously the card does better with AA enabled, but It's not that impressive. Been reading about 9600 pro's and the nice OC's people are getting. I'm considering RMA'ing it and getting a 9600 pro or a 9700 np. Any thoughts and/or suggestions?
