I'm looking for the closest thing to the FX 5900. Aside from core speeds I mean. Pipeline width and whatnot.
 
Well the 5900XT would be the closest to the 5900 I guess for the cheapest price. Take a look at this and you can see that it is the same core just slowed down a little.

On there you can see that the 5900XT is 250 bit like the 5900 and up cards. Get one of the better brands and most of them will overclock to the same speeds as the higher priced cards or at least very close to it.
 
I'm not really concerned with clock speeds and overclocking potential. I need to test a development bug and was hoping to get away cheap. Something about rounding errors in the FX chipset.
 
I guess I need to know if a FX5200 is still an FX. We all know a GF4MX is NOT a GF4.
