Test Setup and Notes:

Here is the system that we used to benchmark the Gigabyte GeForce FX 5700 Ultra:

Intel P4 2.8BGhz
AVC Sunflower P4 Cooler
MSI 648Max motherboard
512MB OCZ PC2700 DDR Memory
Seagate 120GB ATA133 Barracuda ST3100
Windows XP with SP1
nVidia cards with Detonator 53.03
nVidia GeForce FX 5700 Ultra
BFG Asylum GeForce FX 5900
Gigabyte GeForce FX 5700 Ultra
ATi cards with Catalyst 3.10 drivers
ATi Radeon 9600XT

Compared with the FX 5700 Ultra is its rival, 9600XT and its successor the FX 5900. The reason why we threw in the FX 5900 is because the recent price has dropped to a range similar to the FX 5700 Ultra.
