So far, I seem to be able to get it up to 380/320 with absolutely no static. I'm pretty sure that's the speed the 9800 Pro runs at. So I'm pretty sure that I now have a 9800 Pro in my system. Yay.

Oh, I'm not even considering upgrading. It should be perfectly playable with the rig I have now by the time it comes out. I was simply wondering, because it didn't actually say. <----- happy Radeon 9800 owner. :)

But I believe I've seen AnAndTech benchmarks before where the number they posted was the minimum frame rate. Hrm..

I was speaking more of running it in multiplayer. You know, when your team is chatting with you and things like that.

Then you haven't been paying attention, dear. You're all basing your answers assuming HL 2 is as much of a hog as DOOM 3. It can better be compared to UT2003. Although it's true, you may want to upgrade the card a BIT, and probably WOULDN'T be ablebto run it at that high a resolution, but would...

On the DOOM 3 benchmark test, what results were actually posted? Was that the minimum frame rate throughout the test, the average frame rate, the number they got on the benchmark results screen, or what? Edit: I am, of course, referring to the test run by anandtech on the 8 GPUs, including the...
