What are the best $200 cards?

[WeZona]

I was wondering if anyone can point me to the best cards in the $200 range from ATI and Nvidia. I don't want a high end card. Thanks

For $200 I'd say the 9800Pro.

 

[eyedol]

9800pro and 5700ultra are the popular ones there are a few others though.

Edit: lol I'm too slow...

 

[joecuddles]

9800 Pro or 6600 when it's out in September (who knows when it will ship).

EDIT : Hahaha, by the time I type my post 5 people post with the same answer Looks like he'll be getting a 9800 Pro

 

[joecartoon22]

yeah i say 9800pro for now. but later the 6600 is a damn good deal but who knows when your gonna see those

 

[Stugots]

try to get a 9800pro thats modable to an xt.

 

[eyedol]

btw, I have a 9800pro right now and it easily hits xt speeds after an artic cooler and some ram sinks....not even sure it needed it though.

 

[UltimaParadox]

9800 Pro right now or 5900xt

 

[Sanitarium]

If I where looking for one I'd wait for the 6600s to hit.

 

[HaVoC]

get 9800 pro


mine does 450/400 on water

 

[maxxo]

$200 right now = 9800p.

 

[Alex41290]

Yeah, i'd hafta agree with everyone: 9800 Pro

I have it, and it rocks my world. easily overclockable to XT speeds

 

[skiddy]

Just got my MSI RX9800 Pro. I was able to OC the core to 412, havent tried the memory yet, but I imagine I can get it up to 730 with this massive HSF.

 

[UltimateMan]

did anyone say the 9800 pro yet?

seriously its da best for the money. I modded mine into an XT and had a VGA silencer and ramsinks. OCed to 432 core and 390 ram.

 

[andocser]

another vote for the 9800Pro

 

[Ice]

If I where looking for one I'd wait for the 6600s to hit.

Im waiting for these to hit as well. Best option IMO.
