From what I understand from the articles I've been reading, the 9800XT replaces the 9800 Pro and the 9600XT replaces the 9600 Pro. OK, fine, but the 9800XT is $499 and the 9600XT is $199. That's a pretty big spread. What card falls in the middle? Will there still be a 9800 SE? Or a 9800 Non-Pro? And how do you think the 9600XT will compare to a current 9800 Non-Pro? I just picked up a Non-Pro at Best Buy for $250, but if the 9600XT will give it a run for its money at $199, plus include Half-Life 2...
Here's hoping the 9600XT is out before my 30-day return period is up on the 9800 Non-Pro, just in case.
