ATI and 3Dfx did battle on the PCI buses of old, before 3dfx went bust. What's a 9800 3dFX.
Some 9600xts (formerly nearly all) come with hl2 aswell, and they dont have anything on the 9800. What's more is HL2 has been coming out real soon for the last 6 months... It's not even any good as a paper weight. As for the 9800s that come with it, only the XTs do, though possibly at a time the All in Wonder 9800pros did.
and as far as free goes... the exact same card was 40 dollars cheaper the day after they stopped bundling the hl2 voucher cd with it. That's.. what... 100 times the cost of a blank cd.
Unless the mobo was a very good low price or something like that you should have waited (although i know how you are about buying things :P) Anyway, try buying everything together, so you can ask for discount or something as such and also so you get the lowest prices for everything, ie buying at the latest time before you have everything together.
Haven't ordered anything yet. It's just in the shopping cart. And I will get it all together for warranty purposes, and then they can put it together themselves, I can't be assed. Yeah, I didn't communicate it in my post, but what you said is exactly what I'm doing. I know I'm an impulse buyer (++), but I can't buy impulsively unless I have all the cash at once ;).
Which I don't.
Which is where you come in.
Dearest, humble, wealthy pal Sama, now is your friends time of need, will you be one of the hundreds to rush to his aid? I would fuckin' hope so. ;D
