Vista - Performance Rating - Video Card

I am looking to upgrade my video card and was curious to know who is getting
a perfect 5. Please specify the card you are using to get this.

Thanks

Why are you obsessed with this? Nobody will get it because the drivers
are very immature.

My video card's GPU got a 5.9, but the video RAM got a 4.3. It's an Ati
Radeon X1600 PRO 256MB GDDR2 AGP 8x video card. Around $120-$130 on
newegg.com here in the U.S. Mine's manufactured by Sapphire. It works fine
with Aero Glass, even at high screen resolutions such as 1600x1200.

I have a 9800Pro (older card) amd I still get something like a 5.6 for
video. It's a 256MB card I think. I run Aero just fine. It runs just as fast
with Aero off than it does on. I don't notice any preformance loss. The rest
of my system is an Athlon 64 FX-53 at 2.4Ghz and 1GB.. soon to be 2GB though

Shoot my nVidia 6600 gets something like a 2.9 and runs glass at 1920x1080
and 1280x1024 on dual monitors.

5 is meaningless
