Basically, without getting technical, the Radeon 9800 pro is clocked higher and performs better. The 9700 Pro is still a great card and is about equal to the Radeon 9800 non-pro. If you want technical just ask or do a google search for early Radeon 9800 pro reviews, which are sure to compare and explain the differences.

And if you are in the US, the price difference is now only $15, so the Radeon 9800 pro is the best bargain of the 3 now. A few months ago, the 9700 Pro or 9800 non-pro was a better bargain as the price difference was more like $70-$100.
