Ok, I know people have asked this before.  But with the new config page, there is a pretty big price difference.  It says that the 8800GTS is is on clearance, and the 9800 isn't.  So which one is better.  I saw some reviews that say both are pretty much the same, with pretty much the same FPS on games.  So tell me... why would I get the 9800GTX when I can say money and put it somewhere else on my config going with the 8800GTS?

9800GTX > 8800GTS simply becuase of better frame rates. Also I believe their was a price drop on the 9800GTX and their only about $199 now. But still, your choice!

9800 GTX supports tri-SLI and overclocks better but other than that.. it's the same.

Nvidia dropped the price on the 9800 GTX to $199 but didn't drop prices for the 8800 GTS or 8800GT.

and there's a hardware section...
