Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

The 9700 has double the pipelines of a 9600XT, albeit with lower core and memory speeds, but it will still perform better. Here's a review from Anandtach that lists a 9700 Pro, but it'll give you a baseline idea. The 9700 is approx 15% less in fill rates than its Pro counter-part.

The 9700 is quite an old card......from 2003 i think
Would that matter in DX9 games?

The 9700 is from 2002...the first DX9 and AGP 8X card released. Still a hell of a good card capable of running most stuff @ 1024x768 or better.
