From Newegg.com Lowest price for 9800XT - $495 Lowest price for 9800 Pro - $305 (this of course is without original packaging 'OEM' and without a heatsink)

That's a good way to achieve a happy medium.=)

Yes, get RAM with clock speed that matches your CPU's FSB speed. Always keep RAM clock speed and CPU FSB speed in sync.

My philosphy is get the best card every two years, rather than the second or third best every year.:cool:

9800 Pro

16943, sweet score dude. And looks like i wasnt too far off with my guess.=)

Sorry, yes AthlonXPs.

And just to add a bit to that...Athlon CPU FSB is doubled (2x) and Pentiums are quad pumped (4x).

To answer your question SIGbastard, IMO yes, that's a decent score for your system. And in 3dmark2001 you should be up around 16,000 for a score.

If he's too busy i'm sure he'll just NOT waste his time to read them.

Well that's actually how i intended to install WinXP, but i couldnt figure out how to do it without installing '98 first.

Just wanted to reply to say it worked and all is well. =) Funny how the problems i always have are so obvious and simple.

Thanks for the reply, i'll give it a go.
