I never heard of Canyon. They're also out of stock. And listed at £101.00. Plus shipping, presumably. Is that link correct?

I expect the 9800 Pro will drop a little more in price in weeks to come.

Afraid so, and there not supposed to be very good. But i think there worth about £100 because they will still outperforme a 9600XT. But i would rather spend the extra £20 and get the 256bit version hey .
