Which Card in Mid-Range?

[f2arena]

Hello all... Call me a newbie, but this is my first self-put-together PC. I just wanted to know what everyone suggested for vid card. My max price is just under $200. I was wondering what was suggested in this range: Radeon x600, Radeon 9800, GeForce FX 5900. Those are all @ 128 MB... Any suggestions would really help. Thanks!

Get the Radeon 9800 Pro

9800Pro now, or wait for Nvidia's 6600GT card which is supposed to be $199 and a little faster than the 9800 series ATI cards.

I'd stick with the 9800 Pro. Currently you'll get the best bang for the buck.

**Edit** Kurt has the right idea and mebbe it'll be worth sticking it out for the 6600GT Nvidia card.

go with the 9800 or wait for the 6600gt if your board has pci-e

I see a lot of people throwing around some good pci-e cards as very good suggestions but the question is...is your pc going to be agp or pci-e based?
