hey guys i`m building a pc for maya and 3d appz...
i decided to stick to the old p4 not the new serie

the config so far is:
p4 3.2
p4p800 deluxe
1gb corsair 2 3 3 6 (2.6v)
200gig SATA hdd

and now the big question:

Gecube radeon 9800xt 128ram - 158 euros
Sapphire radeon 9800pro 128 ram (passive cooled + fan) - 168 euros
HIS radeon 9800pro 128 ram ICEQ - 168 euros

thanks for any help or thoughts.. as i know the sapphire is a grate card and can be oc'd to a xt.. well i dont know :)

If you're dead set on the 9800pro card I'd get the HIS card which comes with a VGA-Silencer cooler. If it's a new one with the R360 core and XT pcb you can always flash it to the XT with the GeCube bios. Good luck........
