| 9800XT for the price of a X800XT PE?
Hi, my first post?
I was just at ATI's site and they're selling the 9800XT for 500 bucks and the the X800XT Platinum Edition for the same price. Is it just me or is that really wierd  ? |

its really weird.... and i think that's because i think that they stopped makin the 9800xt... the 9800xt sucks, and there are a lot of better cards on the market that u can buy for much less $$$ | |

Thats what I reccomend. | |
