Should I upgrade or not?

I currently have a 9800pro (previously a 4200ti, I like my good value cards!) and am considering an upgrade. I quite like the look of the BFG 7600GT on this weeks offer, however cannot find any reviews of it.

I play a bit of BF2 (fancy that new one out in sept too), and currently run at 1024*768 on my 17 inch lcd on low-med settings. What sort of boost will this give me in terms of graphics and framerate over my current card?

Current spec: opteron 144, 2gigs ram, 9800pro

Also, what sort of price can I expect back from my old 9800pro, could make this a cheaper upgrade than I thought

It will rip BF2 apart! You'll be getting up to 100fps on highest settings with a bit of AA and AF aswell

Is it really THAT good like? I suppose it is a year old game now.

One more thing, what kind of fan/cooling has it got on the card? Can't seem to find a photo.

compared to the 9800pro, its THAT good yeah

This is the PCI-E version of the card. Youc an expect it to look exactly the same regarding everything but the socket interface.

Well then it should look exactly the same since it's a PCI-E card too!
