ASUS V9560 /128M

In March 2003 nVidia released the FX 5200 and FX 5600 cards to complete the line-up (the FX 5800 was released 2 months earlier). Each model also had an Ultra variant that was basically identical but had a faster clocked GPU and memory. This ASUS GeForce FX 5600 is one of the early FX cards with it's chip date of early april 2003. I think it was a nice card back in it's day if the price was right and you'd be upgrading a system with a GeForce 2-era chip. Those who already had a GeForce 4 Ti better waited for the newer FX-series to be released or should've switched over to ATi's Radeon. Why? See these benchmarks I've done with a similar FX 5600 and notice that it often falls behind the GeForce 4 Ti4200.
