A FX5700Ultra should be around the same speed. Maybe a bit slower. About the price I'm not sure.
A FX5900XT is definately faster as is a 9800pro!

a 9800SE has 8 piplines, but only 4 are active. By downloading and installing the softmod all 8 of them become active.
The only drawback is that on some games u get tiny artifacts (mis coloured pixels) but this is tiny and virtualyl unoticable.
9800SEs are basically pros that didnt quite make it because of this artifact.

is a site where u can get the softmod
