You can also pick up for about $20 cheaper a Powercolor Radeon 9600 (128MB) Pro

From some benchmarks it should also outperform the FX5600 (CodeCreatures, UT2K3, RTCW), and REALLY beat it out when you turn on eye-candy (Antialiasing and Anistropic Filtering). The results I'm looking at are here:

And just a note, to the extent of my knowledge theres not much of a point in buying 256MB video cards at this time, especially not the mid-range ones like the 5600 and 9600 since the GPUs aren't really going to make full use of all that memory.
