Personally, I think the extra money for the 9800 pro isn't worth it and the tx is a great value. I don't know the clock speeds for the tx though. And what currency is the Rs? The South African Rand?

9800 Pro - 380/340
9800 NP - 325/290
Dell 9800 TX - 325/290

The core can usually overclock very well but the memory is very limited (unless you happen to get a card with ram faster than is normally speced for your card like Sapphire would sometimes provide.).

The TX comes with 2.8NS memory according to some people over at rage3d so it should overclock really well! Should be able to reach ~350
