I'm debating on getting that card. Someone told me the ATI 9600XT would be a better card. Any ideas?

The 5900XT will beat the 9600XT in most games and applications. Might want to wait a while though.

5900 XT is a good card, its roughly 5% behind my standard 5900 in most benches, and spanks the 9600XT.

Prices are going to be dropping soon so you may want to hold off for a couple of weeks, but if you gotta have it now, $170 is a good price for it.
