I'm leaning towards the GeForce 9800 because it seems to have MUCH better reviews. Can someone please give me a second opinion, it would be much appreciated.

I'm also going to need a new power source and am not sure what to get. I was considering this.

What does everybody think? Thanks in advance!The 4750 is a better card...
The PSU is not something i would choose...
Others may have more opinions here on this issue...how much better of a card is it? is it worth the $50?That would depend on what you are expecting out of your vid card...i can't decide that for you...alright well ill definitly think about it...what do you think about this power supply?

do you think this is a good buy? is this better than the 9800 i was looking at?
I'm also wondering if there is a difference between the GDDR3 and GDDR4 cards because the 3870 is a GDDR4 card.
thanksNewEgg has the GeForce 9800GT you were looking at for cheaper and it comes with free COD 5. Just thought i should let you know.

I'd say it's worth the extra $50, myself.
That OCZ PSU is good also, but I would recommend a slightly higher wattage supply, such as a 600W, for future UPGRADES.
