ok im looking to 'possibly' upgrade my graphics card but dont really want to spend too much on one and have noticed the 9800 range is slowly being removed :( so should i buy now or carry on using my x1950 untill i really NEED this upgrade?

the 3 im looking at mainly in this list are the;
Zotac GT - for its cheapness
gainwood 1024 mb GT - for its memory
EVGA GTX+ "superclocked" - for its apparent awesomeness :D

or should keep my x1950 for now untill i really need a new card?
 
so the GTS 250's are good then? its just that none of them had any user feedback, was as if no one would touch them or something :p

another thing i wonder is whats the power usage on the GTS cards... and will my psu (in sig) cope???

EDIT: ok found one feedback and is good :p

havn't logged on since last post so after reading through replys i have more questions :)
Would it be good to go for more Vram? (1024 or more)
i kinda want to go for nvidia now after the 'GTA4 scare' :p (later games might be coded with nvidia) so the 250 cards would my upgrade for now BUT yes it is the 'upgrade bug' described by Dr arc@css :D so i might wait untill the 260's or later go down in price
and can anyone post that 'graphic card power usage table' i saw a while back?
