Short introduction....Recently nVidia introduced the FX5700 series. These cards should become the new mid-range cards, delivering good performance at an attractive price. (~200 € for an FX5700 Ultra). Not that much later I spotted the FX5900 XT. Same price, but better specifications... Hmm worth a try, so I bought me such a card.
And I started benching, and examining the card. Let's take a closer look.
