again i ask...

alright, i'm stuck again in a neverending fued to figure out which video card i should buy...

i said i was only going to spend $150 bucks, but i'm thinking towards the future, and i might need that 256bit mmry no?

So what are the stock clock speeds of the

9500pro
9700np
9800np

? I'm thinking of buying one of those, because most 9500pro's are about $180-200, where the 9700np's are like $215-230, and i can get a 9800np for $245 (is this a good deal? it's retail with samsung mmry, hopefully 2.8ns)

What exactly is the advantages of each compared to each other besides their clock speeds? I know the 9500 is 128bit mmry and the 9700/9800's are 256, but what does that do for me?

thanks again for the advice guys.

Hell yeah, get the 9800. If you get the 9500np L-shape it is actually 256 bit memory plus you get chance to mod. Get 9500np L-Shape 9700np or 9800np depending on how much you want to spend.

well depending on the worth of spending a few extra bucks, i'm down to get the 9800, is 245 a good deal on that? And I dont think i can risk hoping to get an L shape 9500 through the internet.....

is there any difference between the 9800np and 9700np other than their clock speeds?

245 is awesome i would snap that up for sure. It is closer to a 9700 Pro performance.. I would take it over 9700 Pro.
