Need a new Vid Card

[EgyptBoy20]

Hey Guys!
I am looking forward to upgrade my FX5200( ). As you can see in the title, the real challenge is between the nVidia 6800OC (around $250 at newegg) and the Radeon 9800 Pro ($250). I'll be doing some hardcore gaming, but I don't want to break the bank. Especially with my new RAM, see sig. (Trying to put together a somewhat decent system here.)

This one or this or any nVidia 6800 will fit the bill nicely.

Thanks alot!
What about the Radeon 9800 Pro? Around the same price...

The 9800 pro can barely keep up with today's mid range cards like the 6600GT, leta lone a 6800OC.

OK! Thank you! Now, thoughts on the BFG 6800 for $280@NewEgg? Go for it? Yet, I saw a 6800OC for $250 here:http://shop2.outpost.com/product/4082672?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN

Which one performs better?
