Never buy a 9600. Take it from someone that's experienced one and cards of a lower model, and is now using a 9800pro.

radeon 9800pro/xt - http://www.newegg.com/app/SearchProduct ... =Go&DEPA=0 (take your pick,but i suggest not getting an all in wonder; aiw model.)
or nvidia 6600gt - http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDe ... 107&depa=0

I had a 9600xt, It wasn't bad til' it shat out. Now I have to used my back-up fx5400 until I get an upgrade.

I built my own video card out of guitar strings, banjo picks, bronken cds, and crayons. It is called the Bean 1100xDukezModel.
