I have around $300 to spend for a new vid card. Currently have GEForce2 GTS. What do you all reccomend? I have read so much here i am dizzy, the new XT card is nice but 500 bucks just aint happening. Thanks for any input.

9800, flash to Pro BIOS and start overclocking...I have mine running at 425/380...not bad for a card that wasn't supposed to be able to even hit Pro speeds...

get 9700 pro from anandtech realtime price guide for 294 or 9800 pro for 306 you choose, they're both good.

5900 for ~240 bucks on pricewatch. They overclock pretty good..........
Otherwise 9800 NP and flash the bios.

9800pro is $300. if you wanna save $50 and don't mind messing with your card, try getting a 9800np and flashing the bios.
