GeForce FX 5600
256MB DDR

silly question
they don't make a Mac version of the 5600
Get the 5600.
Period.Unless you like having massive problems with getting your ATi card to work in your favorite 3D game.
Besides - it has way more VRAM!

yeah, but there are always little buggies with newer Motherboards.
I don't know for sure if it's my motherboard or video card drivers yet - to be fair.

Get the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro. It's WAY faster and better quality.
