When should I get the 9800 Pro

I'm going to getting the 9800 Pro, but would like know if I should buy it now or wait for the next gen vid cards to come out when there'll hopefully be a price drop?

i wouldn't expect a huge price drop when the PCI-Express cards come out because the demand for AGP cards with still exist and be entirely seperate from the demand for PCI-E cards.

Different, but related. When the next-gen cards come out prices will drop a good deal for the top most cards and not as much for the lower cards. I'd expect to save at least 50 to 100 bucks. Don't expect shipping of the new cards until at least May tho.
