Need some advice on ati radeon purchase

Hello to everyone.
I currently have a, well waiting on the returned RMA, radeon 9800 pro 128.
I have a second system that I am wanting to get a better card for. It
currently has a radeon 9000 pro. Can anyone suggest a better card?
Possibly better than the 9800 pro ? If I get a better card than the 9800
pro, I will just put the 9800 pro in my second system and the better of the
two in this one.
Thanks.
Thomas

Sys. Specs.

Soyo Dragon Plus
1 GB PC 2700 ram

Radeon 9000 pro *currently* waiting on 9800 pro 128 RMA

That would be an X800 Pro or X800XT then.

£300 or so round these parts.

The only card that will give you noticeably better performance is the latest
from ATI, the X800 series of cards I believe.

Which wouldn't be better than a 9800 Pro, but certainly better than any
9000...
