Two cupcakes were in an oven. One turned to the other and said "Damn, it sure is hot in here" and the other one said "HOLY SHIT! A TALKING CUPCAKE!"

And remember, those benches use a 5600 Ultra, not a regular 5600. So, on average, you will get a 5-10 FPS lower than the review says. The testbed they use is also a power rig: With an Athlon64 FX-51, and 1 GB of RAM. So, don't expect these scores with your testbed, unless, of course, you have something this powerfull.
Prices on both- - $157
- $105
The performance difference between the two is quite large, IMHO, having experience with the 5600 and a 9500 Pro (Which gets nearly the same performance, Sponge should be able to back me on this).
