I have a ATI Radeon 9700 PRO and was considering a 9800 PRO, wanted to find out how much I could get for my current card. Trying to hold out for the next cycle of cards but not sure how much re-sale the card would lose. Suggestions?

VAry from 1 buck to 250 dollars pending on when you sell it.
 

Not worth the upgrade...
Anyways, you could probably get around 225-250 for your used 9700 pro.

Best buy sells ATI pros for 400 dollars.

So I say $350 no less maybe a little more.

Sapphires around $310-325.

Right now I could get 200 and pay 185 for a 9800 PRO but I haven't even overclocked my 9700 PRO to extend its life. I was going to try the omega drivers 3.6 but the last time I went with those I lost 1000 points in 3D Mark 03. I did a clean unistall of the control panel and drivers then used driver cleaner and regclean in safe mode and rebooted into normal then installed the omega's. I know it said that you could install the drivers over the current catalyst as long as you removed the control panel but I opted for a complete removal of both and then installed omega's.
