    edit: also abu u have a good videocard as it is there is no point in updating it, as it will run all new games very well.

    why not keep your money and go out, or save up. and keep your cash for a car or somehting when ur a bit older.
    only thing is, i need a computer that will last me till college. and my card won't. plus, getting a 9800 pro for free isn't a bad deal!

    and how much of a difference will $200 make to my future life?

    i dotn see how it wont last, ive been running a vodoo 2 3000 16mb pci card on my desktop which i had till november.

    and now i just bought a 9200se which runs games i played so far well.

    and if u wait till new ati cards come out the 9800pro will come down in price, or keep the 9600.

    and it aint free, your still getting your funds form somewhere, it would be free if you wer egiven it, if anything it could be classed as trading.

    well. my card playing doom 3 dosn&#39;t work so well. plus, almost half the things i&#39;m selling i did get for free. either from black friday or by sell old stuff (that i already paid for, and they&#39;re stuff that i bought with my computer). so, yea, maybe trading is a more appropiate term. i still think i&#39;m gonna get this. the thign is, if i don&#39;t sell my 9600 now, it won&#39;t be worth too much in a year or 2.
