athlonxp 3200+ 400FSB, 512mb dual channel, nForce2 Ultra. I assumed that the 5500 256MB was a higher level card, but it's just a tiny step above a 5200. Radeon 9550 and 9600 (non pros) beat this card with only 128mb. I only paid $53 for it, but for $100 you can get a 9800 Pro and it will pull 5700 on 3D marks 03.
