Well im sure this will influence your decision...I had just bought a Radeon 9700 Pro and when i put it in, it sucked major ass and got around 17 fps all the way up to 500 just when it was a black screen. but usually it would be at 50-60. Then i was like wtf and returned it, and bought another one by a different company. The same thing happened with that card. Two 9700's that sucked shit. Now i am waiting for the FX to come out sometime before March 10th. I am pretty dam sure this card will show a dramitic increase in performace and quality. I hope this helped.
