Anyone using the above-mentioned card? How is it?

Also, how is the performance of the FX5600U as compared to 9500Pro and 9600Pro?

TIA. ;)

i havent used the card before, but all i can tell you is if you want a FX dont get it from PNY because you can get it from a better brand for like 50 - 100 extra bucks.

i second that! i can't speek for what parts they are using now but in the past pny uses low grade stuff on there boards i would go with gainward, leadtek or albatron. just my opinion.

also make sure it is a revision 2.0 card. the revision 2,0 has hgher clock speeds 400/800 the revision 1.0 is running 350/700. everything else is the smae on the cards just higher clock speeds!

good luck!

From what I understand, this card is based exactly on the reference design and is just repackaged with the PNY logo and stuff? :confused:
