Well most of us thought the FX5500 would find itself somewhere between the FX5200 and the FX5600.
In fact it seems to be far too often BELOW the FX5200 and below even the R8500 and GF4ti in most cases. Sad thing is that the UT2K4 demo puts the R8500 ahead of it in all 'playable' situations. And the GF4ti is right beside the R8500 (depending on resolution they swap spots). Tomb Raider is unplayable using PS2.0, and forcing PS 1.1/1.4 the Older cards run all over this ill-prepared contender.
Not really worth a second look when there are still GF4tis out there.

The ModFathers thoroughly trounce it with the seemingly out of place FX5950, FX5900XT and FX5700;
