So should I go with the 9800 pro?  Seems like it overclocks a to a faster speed too.  Of course I have no clue how to overclock.  Either way I was gonna buy a nice little fan for it.

It's a good deal, but only the one I linked to earlier. The others are ripoffs unless you are ready to pay extra for the silence. The X800s are about $175 on newegg and are much faster.

All the AGP's are $200 or more.

oh, you're right, I didn't notice those were all PCIE. It seems that the prices are actually about the same, but the AGP X800s are only available in 256MB versions.

The 6800nu is probably your best bet then ($165 or so), or if you're feeling lucky, the 6800le.
