I'm looking to get a new graphics card (among other things) and wondered should I get a 9700pro, or wait till thr x700 comes out and hope that the 9800pro preices will drop because of this?
 
is this card going to be for gaming? far as I know the x700 is going to be pci-express, so you may have to upgrade the mb to get this card.... i have both the 9700pro and the 9800pro..... both are good cards.... and will handle most games today very well... the 9800pro will do just a bit better than the 9700pro.
 
no what I mean is should I wait till the x700 comes out in a hope that its release will reduce the price of 9800 pro's I am sticking with agp, nothing wrong with it. How much better is the 9800? enough to make it worth the extra £££?
