Doesn't looks like an Ultra, ah, it's a rather ****poor card,
performance is rather shabby! And 256Mb... on a card this slow you
don't need 256Mb memory. The games that actually use 256Mb will never
RUN on this card.

So it's just a ****poor card, cheap maybe... but it's damn ****poor in
performance!

Maybe if you don't play games... then again why the **** are you
buying a card with 256Mb..if you don't play games.

Ah, the card sux... life to!

A got an asus fx 5200td version 128bit memory card.
And with dx 9.0b and the 53.03 driver + the nf2 3.13 driver a can play
halo without problem in 800x600x32. Plus a get 1500 point in
3dmark2003 no o/c
The next budget card that i would get is a fx5600 or a td version. I'm
really shure that this card will do a good job in 1024x748x32.

You only have to possed a good system like a barton 2600 333fsb that
as some 3d feature in it + 333 ddr mem , it really help my Vcard.

Thanks, your right... Dont think I'll bother!

Scalp up a little bit more money and get a FX5700Ultra or an FX5900XT,
truly the FX5600 chip is not good enough for gaming. In many games you
have to lower the quality settings to "****poor" to get them to run
above 30fps!
