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.
