Your card isn't an ati hd5670, it is about 75% as fast as an 8800gt (see my other post in response to you)
The 8800gt and 9800gt are the same card. Nvidia renamed it at the instance of the add board vendors and oems such as hp and dell so that there offerings would seem newer. Now eventually the 9800gt got a die shrink so some 9800gt run cooler than some 8800gt/9800gt.

I had a rough estimation, based on specs and eyeballing, but nothing exact. The 8800/9800 thing has always seemed funny to me. 9800s seem more prevalent, so it's why I brought it up. Always good to hear the ATI comparisons from someone into them. I've been an Nvidia guy, which is another reason I haven't upgraded in 3 years. (not as bad as the FX years, though... I held on to my 4400 for a looong time)

A 9800GT is roughly equivalent to a 5670. *NM*

ATI Mobility HD5730 is almost the same as the desktop ATI HD5670 but it is closer to ATI HD5570

One thing you didn't mention is what resolution you're trying to run at.

Glad to hear it's working. That kind of performance is much more what I'd expect from a 5670.

That didn't stop me from getting the 5770 so that I would have a "buffer zone" of peformance gains

The HD5670 is meant to be a casual gamer card

Nice to know that someone selling these actually knows what they're talking about.

Slickdeals thread claims it's no longer available. Was a good deal, though. *NM*
