Comprehensive benchmark of recent/high end ATI cards?

[BatmanNate]

I am having trouble finding a benchmark that compares a decent selection of cards from the 9600, 9700, 9800 range including the sub models (ie the Pro, XT, SE, 128/256, etc.) Sadly my 9700 Pro just went to video card heaven, and I would like to find out what is as fast, potentially as fast, or almost as fast as my former card for as cheap as possible. I've had the card for a long time in video card terms, probably about a year, yet it looks like a replacement is going to cost what I paid for it originally (I got a pretty good deal.) Links or discussion would be fine, and I'm not looking for an nVidia solution. TIA.

Short answer: 9800NP is almost exactly as fast as the 9700Pro, though both cards are now difficult to find except as used/refurb parts. 9800Pro is maybe 10% faster at best, and has recently undergone major price reductions. 9800SE is total crap. 9800XT is a bit faster than the 9800Pro, but generally costs so much more that it's not worth it.

Good deal. I see a lot of hot deals on the 9800 Pro at the moment. It also appears I could grab the Powercolor 9800SE and try the softmod.

Any ideas on which cards are the best OCers?
