I've been looking all around newegg and different fourms trying to figure out which is the best bang for buck card atm for $200. Its always either a

5900XT
9800pro

And I have found that some 9800pros do ship with an r360 core which is the same core that XTs come with. I was thinking of buying either one of these 2 cards but now I'm reading that a 6600GT is coming out soon which should trump these 2 cards but cost the same. Should I wait or buy either of these cards or some other I haven't mentioned?
 
I'm guessing some might say to wait for the Geforce 6600 series but if you need a card now the 9800 Pro looks like a good choice. Newegg sometimes has deals on refurbs. I just ordered a refurb ATI 9800 Pro 256mb card for $180 shipped from dumpinggoods.com yesterday. I think I'm going to wait on a next gen card for awhile.
