If anyone has a 9800pro for sale at about $150, new or used as long as it still works well.
 
I have a 9800 SE, sorry, but I really wanted to reply because I like your name, it's my nickname minus the 2006 lol
 
I am interested in any of the different versions of the 9800 as well, I am just most interested in the 9800pro.
 
Trust me, I'd sell you my 9800 SE since I'm going to get a X800 pro within the next month or two, but it's not worth it man, trust me.
 
have you tried to softmod it into a 9800pro?

what do you mean its not worth it

also, what is the "SE" version, is it better or worse than the pro
 
No Asus, I don't even know what softmodding is all about, if anything I may give it to a friend or give it to the guy who built my computer once I get my X800 pro, I really don't like it because there are lots of "tears" when I play a game or watch a movie on my comp.
 
thanx for the link SHUZER, I probably will buy there, but now I will ask how much of a difference there is between all of the 9800 series, and which is the best and why?
 
XT = Best = Fast clock speed/ram speed
SE = Sucks, dont get it
Pro = Basically an XT downclocked and slightly worse. but very worth the price at the moment.
 
the Pro was the first 9800 speed-boost, with faster RAM(2.8ns on mine), the 9800 SE are 9800 Pros that didn't have 8 working pipelines or were marked as such(they might work, but it's risky), and the XT is the fastest and last of the 9800 series with the fastest(2.0ns) RAM, better heatsink, and OverDrive.
 
The difference in price between the 9800pro and 9800XT is worth 15$.
My math.
A 9800XT hits 114.2 FPS in UT2003 while the 9800Pro hits 107.6. (taken from a Tom's Hardware benchmark).
114.2 / 107.6 = 1.06
If a 9800Pro costs 200$ then a 9800XT should cost (200 * 1.06 = 212) 212$ based on performance in that UT2003 benchmark.

Get the 9800Pro.
 
that sux, I am just glad that I didn't have enough money to buy a computer last september
 
So, it is possible to overclock/softmod a 9800pro to a XT ?
