9800 or 5900 nu?

I was wondering which card was better for star wars galaxys. That is my game of choice right now, along with halo. I have a 9700 pro right now and was thinking about an upgrade.
 
That upgrade isn't really worth it IMO. But if you really want to upgrade, look around for reviews that use SW Galaxies and Halo as tests and decide from there.
 
Well, historically Nvidia has been better in OpenGL (which I'm assuming SWG uses) and ATI has been better in DX9 games and overall image quality. I'd stick with the 9700 Pro for now, the 9800 won't be much of a boost, and the 5900nu is about the same as the 9700 Pro.
 
listen to these guys...

upgrading to 9800 or 5900nu from 9700 pro is a waste of money. not much of an improvement really...
 
So no one has heard of any benchmarks for swg?

Note i dont really care if you think i should upgrade or not, but thanks for the advice. Another note is that i plan on overclocking as far as i can on air. I havent bothered with the 9700 pro because i plan on selling it and dont want to mess it up.
