What should i buy, a 6600 GT or a 9800 Pro!?

Im in the same boat, and I'm most likely buying a 6600GT next paycheck. I would get a x700, but they only come in pci express.

Right now, from what it seems the 6600GT totally owns the 9800Pro in most games.
But if you're a fan of ATi, ATi should have their PCI-E to AGP bridge ready by year's end, and new x700 AGP cards out early next year

6600 GT no doubt about it.

Definitely the 6600GT, I'm an ATI fan, but I'm no idiot, and I'll go with whoever has the fastest part. Even if the X700's were to come out with AGP versions, I suspect they would be trounced by the 6600's, as the 6600's are giving the X800 a serious run for their money. This round goes to nvidia, for now.
