            I have thought about it again, i think the 88GT would best suit your position

              Well, the 8800gt is theoretically better. It has more hardware inside it and the only reason the 9600gt matches it is because of the higher clock speeds. However, since i got the "superclocked" version, it should be a lot faster.

              From graphs i've seen, i should expect a nice 10-15fps gain on most games i play.

                The 8800GT does get quite hot, EVGA says it's rated to 100C I think. And make sure to check if you have one with the EVGA BIOS fan speed update, or you fan will be at 29% until it reaches 100 or something. The new BIOS smoothly ramps fan speed up.

                  Same here.
                  When I bought my 8800GT, the OC version was the same as the standard after rebates.

                    Did you purchase your 9800GTX online?
