I have a now redundant EVGA Nvidia GTX260 (Superclocked Core 192 Edition) which is damn fine gaming GPU you need a PCIexpress slot though, its basically this card here:
They retail from stores and ebay at around £140, but I'd let you have it for less if you're interested it saves me having to post it on ebay and you know it comes from a reputable source.
FYI: I use an Ati 4890 now, I have the NV 260 when I did an RMA on my old 8800 GTX which died in March, but bought the ATI whilst waiting 2months for the RMA. Since the 4890 is the better card I use that now..
If you really want an Ati 9800 you would have to go to ebay I would have thought. Asus/Gainward/EVGA and Sapphire are the best brands... Its a seriously out of date GPU though you will struggle to run newer titles on it.
If you want to buy new the Ati 4870 is probably the best value, the 5870 is the best but its expensive and really only worth it if you want to play games using DirectX 11 on Vista/Win7.

ah im being a dufus you were talking about the NV 9800 not the old Ati 9800 my mistake.
So in Nvidia world you basically have the 8800 GTX as the first Dx10 card then later they moved up to the 9800 series and then they moved onto the 200 series. Or to put it simply a 260 out performs both the 9800 and 8800 series and is roughly equivalent to an Ati 4870.
Lets discuss the rest privately as its bound to involve postal addresses etc, in a nutshell though £100 for the GPU + Postage is good no BS price for us both IMHO.
