9800Pro all the way.
/thread
Yeah, 9800pro.
9800pro easily.
For the reasons in the 'X800XT in the UK' thread, by the way. :D
The only problem is can see with the OEM card is the fact it probably wont have any warrently with it, so if it breaks further on down the line you wont be able to get an RMA/replacment.

this very card is brand new built by Ati and come with the newer xt r360 core instead of the usual r350- it'l overclocks better and can be turned into a 9800xt with a bios flash- awesome. Cheap awell.
thats the one i just bought :>
Remeber to OC the card to stock XT speeds first (Core: 414, Mem: 365) to make sure there's no problems, then flash the BIOS, if you're going to. Don't OC or flash it without changing the stock cooler either.
