I got the one from Dabs last week - very impressed - Also its a full FX5900
and the other is a FX5900XT so its slower but more money. Also Dabs are
fast, I ordered my card from them on the Friday night arounf 7.30pm and it
arrived by 9am the following day!

Er, one is a slower XT, other one is a plain 5900 yet costs less. The answer
should be clear... unless you have a 21" Diamondtron and plan to run the
desktop at higher than 1600x1200, in which case the LeadTek gives much
sharper text.
