Which video card should I get - need opinions.

[RAR]

Here are my four choices (under $160), which one should I get????

Sapphire Atlantis ATI RADEON 9600 PRO 128MB 8X AGP DVI/TV $156

MSI Model FX5600-TD128 Geforce FX 5600 AGP8X $155

GAINWARD GeForce 4, 8X AGP. Ti 4200, 3.6ns, 128MB DDR. VIVO $135

GAINWARD/CARDEXPERT GeForce 4 Ti 4800SE8X AGP, 3.6ns, 128MB DDR. $156 (thanks, telexen)

I want to stay below $160, so that is my criteria. Any other suggestions would be welcomed.

Gainward GF4 Ti 4800SE 8X AGP 128mb ... Could be another option.

Personally I like the MSI GF4 Ti 4800SE

RADEON!
GeForce4 would be about the same if not faster than the 5600, just no DX9 support.
GET RADEON!

Go with the Gainward. I really liked my Gainward card. I never had any trouble with it and it ran every game I threw at it. Depending on the situation, it was faster than my 9500 Pro is.

Will outperform the others, until DX 9 is fully implemented. FX and Radeons will be better with AA, also.

FYI - 3.6 ns is the standard speed for the Ti4400/4800SE to run the memory at 550 mhz.

go with the Radeon 9600 bro.. it kills all the other cards on that list.. Ti4200's can pretty much keep with it.. until you enable AA or AF, then they take a huge hit, but R9600 pro keeps truckin.
