Can't you just get a 8800gt and OC it to get effectively that same thing?

Not really. 9800GTX+ has more shaders and is a 55nm process. It will still yield more after you OC it further.

Closest thing would be a volt-modded 8800GTS-512 w/ Samsung memory.

Add the shipping... AND the tax.

I never, ever, EVER buy anything from Tigerdirect.

Yeah, I look at the TD deals, but the tax and s/h always kills the deals.

Why not go for the 260 for that much $?

More memory?

The 9800 doesn't have the raw processing power to effectively use a full GB. The 260 will win in every situation when the 2 cards are compared.

$20? o.O I checked and Ground is only $2 for me. That's actually a pretty nice price. I don't remember TD having any places in CA. I remember them being in.. Florida and... I wanna say Illinois?
