The 9800 Pro, easily and in all cases.

agreed
having spent hours trawling around the net for comparisons (both around the
same price) i've just recieved my hercules 9800 pro. a damn fine card. £143
in uk from www.overclockers.com
even makes ut2004 run smoothly with all details set to max

X800Pro ships on June 04. CompUSA is taking pre-orders now.
Its $400 and about twice as fast.

So either get the $180~220 9800Pro or wait for the X800...

Only a fool would spend $350~500 on a 9800XT or 5950 card.

hmm my powercolor (yikes) 9600xt makes ut2004 do the
same thing - maxed out 1280x960, smooth as...

just, i came home last night and discovered the fan
on the damn thing had stopped and it overheated and
died. oops.

or wait an extra 6 months and ....

Never the less, there are peaks and valleys to the product cycle in relation
to the end users price benefit. Darthy makes a valid point.

Yeah yeah, you can wait forever... but theres a DIFFERNCE between 2~3
weeks and 3~13 months!!

Remember: In the USA - it is dangeroud to draw or write about Heir Bush in a negative way. The police or SS are called, people threaten to kill you. (What country is this again?)

- 15yr old boy in Washington was disciplined for drawing such images.
- White House blows cover of an undercover agent because her husband said there were no WMD (before the USA started the war) - her job was finding terrorist. (This makes sense?)
God bless the land of the free. Where you can burn the Constitution... Ashcroft does it every day.
