If you got money to burn, pick up a radeon 9600 XT with 256ddr. The 9800 isnt worth it because it is the top of the line model, coming in at like $500 (im from canada). If you really want the best card though, wait for the 6800 Ultra from Nvidia. Gamespy just did a test between the Ultra and Radeon 9800XT and the radeon got SPANKED! 3Dmark scores were above 10,000, usually about double the radeon. As the resolution and graphics options were turned up, the nvidia pulled farther ahead. Of course, ATI is releasing thier new kick ass card in a couple of weeks.
