Only card under$200 thats any good from nvidia is the Fx5900.But they only have FX5900XT's now.They are almost as good just not as fast as a FX5900nu but flash it to a 5900ultra or 5950 then they wake up.and dont worry about the 128mb with the 5900ultra or 65950 bios flash its not a problem i did it with my Fx5900 and i couldnt have been happier.

Unless you get a 5900XT real cheap ($90-$120), then the 6600GT is the only way to go. If I was buying now, then the 6600GT is what I would shoot for. They are fast and cheap, what more do you want for $200?

Now this if you are staying with nvidia....Actually, the 6600GT is the only way to go at that price point.

Not all XT's are made the same, so don't think getting one is the way to a 5950U. Get a 6600GT, and enjoy!

Yeah football is right about that .If you have to spend a few more bucks get the 6600Gt you wont regret it but you might with the FX5900Xt but even if it did flash and ran right the 6600Gt is faster and just an all around better card.
