I was looking around the on the internet and now that the 9800SE has becoming retail sapphire has a card going for $200. Anyone know the actual speed? The stock speeds of R9600P are around 400/300 correct? I think I saw a PowerColor one that was at 380/340(680DDR).

hmmm... they are both cards crippled by having their texture pipes cut down to 4... it would be interesting to see how they compete. if you can i'd really reccomend getting a true 9800np though

Full 9800's are only $250. Pay the extra $50 and go for the much faster card, or save $50 and go for a decently fast and much cooler 9600P.

Also consider 9700np for over $210, much faster than the 9600pro
