Going to get the 9700pro, but when and which?

[ScottyB]

Okay I decided on the 9700 Pro but I want to get it by my birthday. I will wait till a little later though if the geforce FX will drop the 9700's price alot with a few weeks. So should I order it today or wait a bit? ALso which brand should I get? I like the looks of the Guillemot Hercules Radeon 9700 PRO but it is a little more expensive than the rest and I can't seem to find the retail version.

There's supposed to be a 15% price drop for ATI products when the R350 comes out in March.
So if you feel like waiting a few weeks then you'll save some cash.

Yeah, wait for the r350 to come out in a few weeks if you can. Also, on brands, Sapphire makes some of the cards ATI sells under it's own brand so your getting the quality at a bit of a discount with Sapphire.

The Sapphire seems to be good, but I'll wait for the juicy pricedrops.

Is there an article somewhere with all the different 9700pros compared?
