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

Sorry, my friend, but that is just foolish, (no offense, I am just trying to make a point) you should not spend any extra money beyond the 2500+, the only difference between the 2500+ and the 2800+ is less that 200 MHz. Anyone can overclock 200MHz safely. Regardless, going from your current processor to the 2500+ or the 2800+ you would not know the difference. Save your money and get better graphics!

I found a Sappire Radeon 9800 SE for $234, which is a great deal, the best at your store

Kei your going to hate me but buy the 9700 pro

Canada doesn't have the 9700pro looked everywhere and se...?

Maybe i'll get 2500+ It lowered my comp price dramatically like 1000 bux

At your store:



Athlon XP 2500+ = $137 1.83 GHz
Athlon XP 2800+ = $217 2.08 GHz

Sorry dude, that is a rip, stick with the 2500+!
