Alright, a few days ago I ordered a new computer system so I can finally play some of the new games that are coming out. I know more than the average person about computers, but I haven't shopped for one in a very long time, so my info is sort of out of date. ANYWAYS.....

I ordered a system with a Saphire Radeon 9600 Pro 256 MB video card. My computer is supposed to be ready for tomorrow and I can't wait; but I just recieved a phone call from them and now I'm a tiny bit worried. He says they recieved the wrong video card, a Saphire Radeon 9600 XT 128 MB. He told me that it is a better card, I checked their website and it is indeed quite a bit more expensive than the one I ordered, but he said he would give it to me for the same price.

I told him if he says it's a better card then go for it. He told me to do some checking on the internet and if I have a problem with it to give him a call back. Now I've been waiting for this thing for a week now and I already bought WoW and I can't wait to play so I REALLY don't want to have to wait longer for them to order the other card. Is the XT indeed the better card?


Cliff notes: Which video card is better, Radeon 9600 Pro 256 or Radeon 9600 XT 128?
