Help Me Decide:)

[Alphanos]

I'm trying to compare three ATI video cards: the 9700 Pro AIW, the 9800 Pro, and the 9800 Pro 256 MB. Of course since I need to decide by mid-July at the latest, the third option might not really be an option; I don't know when these will appear on the market. Any suggestions?

Also I will need to get a (CRT) monitor. The only current ideas I have for that are that it should be 19", preferably black in color, and a good brand. Other than that I have no idea which monitor I should be getting.

the 9800 256mb offers only marginal improvements over the 9800 pro and is alot more expensive. i would reccommend getting the 9700 aiw, for there is not much of a differance between the 9700 and the 9800 and the multimedia functions are exceelent on the aiw.

hope this helps

Dell's housebrand is NEC i beilve and they sell them quite cheaply!

I'd go the 9700AIW route myself!

PS

You get the remote wonder too! I have that for my regular 9700 and it works wonderfully when watching dvds or just messing around with people!

and it works through walls-RF!
