Hey I'm trying to make a new build, to over-clock, before the end of the month. That being said, I have an issue with choosing a video card. I'm very sure I want to go with either a 9600gt or an 8800gt. The 9600gt I can get for $144.99 and the 8800gt I can get for $174.99. (US $) the cards are:

Which one would perform better? The 9600gt has higher clocks, but I know that isn't everything. It lacks more stream processors. Also, I could over-clock the 8800gt to higher clocks. So my question is which should I get for better performance? (I plan on playing Bioshock, Portal, HL 2 ep2, Crysis, C&c 3, and Spore to name a few)
