Thought I might get some feedback from you guys... I currently have an ATI Radeon 9600XT sitting in a box under the tree as my Christmas gift (yes, I'm in the know), and I'm wondering if I should consider trading it in for something else in anticipation of games to come and performance. Do you all think the 9600XT will hold its own for a while? I've read several reviews that the 5700 Ultra performs better and overclocks higher, but lacks in its performance on DX9 games and some shadowing effects.
The newer 5900se I heard is blowing both the 5700 and 9600xt out of the water, but i'm not so sure in DX9 games since there hasn't been many reviews on it.
Any suggestions? In terms of price, I'm talkin retail cards here, not OEM or used...
