Why didn't you order the HD4850 instead? It's quite a bit faster than the 9800GTX, has DX 10.1 support, and costs $5 less!

Why bother asking after ordering? If you'd have asked in advance, you could have gotten a better card for less money.

Personally I agree with jackbomb that 4850 should be better choice, recently for the reason of 9800 GTX+ there is a price drop for the 4850 card, a recent deal on the ASUS Radeon HD 4850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card is $150 which is normally priced around $200.

a lotta loving and hating going on this thread. if u got a budget of 200 stay with the 4850. and stick with newegg. tigerdirect is garbage. make sure ur case is well ventilated though. and u got a psu thats up to par.
