How much is each specifically going to cost you?

I recommend the 9800 for $200 (Go to Circuit City)

newegg price: 9600xt-$190, 9600pro-$180, FX5900-$190

Radeon 9700 Pro. Can be had for a little under or over $200, and can beat out the 9600Pro/XT.

 

[pillowboy]

the cheapest i saw for 9700pro is 240 :/

Radeon 9800 performs almost exactly like the 9700 Pro. Go nab one at Circuit City before they run out!

Uhhh..you based a purchase on clock speed alone and not actual performance? Question....Do you own a P4 as well?
