Keikan, to maximize our helpfulness to you, could you provide us with links to the stores in your vicinity?

[Keikan]

Umm. the sites store is super confusing for example when you see a 9600xt for sale and it's $220 then it's a pro... but good luck

Now you have to tell us what the maximum you can spend is, including tax.
By the way, Keikan, what is your current mobo, CPU, memory, and power supply unit setup?

Edit: and here is a funny little comic I found: Who does this remind you of?

[Keikan]

$1500 on that site

But that store only has Asus 9600xt no others.

I just might get the pro seeing there not that much difference but then it becomes sapphire vs powercolor

MY setup? will be

AMD Athlon XP Barton 2x00+
Gigabyte ga-7n400-L1
1024mb pc3200 ram
350watt powersuply

reminds me of intel...

Looks good any of the above cards will perform similarly... You may get slight nechmark differences but the gam,es will play the same... Go for it

BTW nice rig... good starting platfrom... try to get a barton core... easier yo cool better etc...

[Keikan]

ya but I can't decide 2500+ or 2800+

[Keikan]

Ahh update: the powercolor 9600pro is cheaper should i get that?

Yes/well to tell you the truth do whatever is best for your budget. What is its price?

As far as I know the price of the 2500+ is $90 USD, a great deal. I would get that. If you are not satisfied with the performance, you can comfortable and easily overclock it to the 2800+.

Everything fits into my $1500 budget or close. I can afford the sapphire or the powercolor and I can afford the 2500 or the 2800 but i pick 2800 because I'm not gonna be overclocking for a while. Now it's powercolor or sapphire 9600pro which shall I choose
