All 5900 models are the same. The /-subset numbers are just for different markets and color-combinations of the player. I've confirmed this with Philips (I own a 5900 myself).

The chip is a Zoran 778.

The image quality is very good. But only use this player if you're going to use HDMI! The upscaling does a wonderful job.
