I going to get a new video card, I have an ATI AiW 9700pro but my brother wants it back for his system so I guess he's going to get back since I was borrowing it while he got the rest of the pieces for his system. I have an fx5600non-ultra but it's in my pentium 2 and I don't really want to put it back in my system. What new video card should I get.

maybe a 9700pro again

I think I'll get the Evga FX5900 because it's the best deal but I might splurge and get the AiW ati 9800pro but any input would be helpfull, thank you.

Buy the 9600XT or the 9800Pro depending on how much money you have.

I bought a 9800 Pro.

Well, what's your budget? The 5900SE will give you the most bang for your buck, IMO, but if I had the money I would get the AIW 9800 Pro.

Buy a 9800 Pro and OC it to XT levels.

I'd like to get something in the $150 to $220 range. I can spend more but I'm not totally conviced it's worth it, though all the all-in-Wonder features are nice. I think it comes down to the Evga 5900, the AiW 9600pro or the AiW 9800pro. The fx5900 looks like the best deal, you think I can flash it to a 5950ultra? Is the 9800pro really worth the extra $120?

[cysus]

If you think about it the AiW 9800pro isn't a bad deal, an ati remote tv capture card cost $100 and then it's only $20 bucks more than the fx5900. But I can't decide between the 9800pro, the 9600pro, the 5900, or I could even wait and get one of the next generation ATI R420 or NVIDIA NV40 base video cards, I hadn't even thought of that before. I think I'll suggest to my brother that he get one of the next gen. cards and I'll give him $200 for the 9700pro I'm using.

does the AiW ati 9800pro come with HalfLife 2?

is it worth it to get a 9700pro and then get a tv video captur card from another company. I would spend a little extra on a vidoe capture card but who makes a decent one thanks
