I think you will be wasting your money. The Radeon 9700 is surely a great card but as you know hardware evolves very fast so you will be putting allot of money to change an “obsolete” card to another. The new Radeon 9800pro is your best choice the GeForce FX 5800 is not an option it proved to be a completely failure. The FX 5900 seems to be n the top but I saw some test in toms hardware that say the Radeon has better image quality with AA and Aniso.

Well I know that hardware evolves quick but going from a gf4 ti 420064 ram to a ati9700 128ram pro will be a lot of difference.
I came across a ATI Radeon 9700PRO 128Ram for only $269.00
and a Radeon for $399.00. That is more than $100 difference and call me cheap but I can do a lot with a $100. I wouldn't pay $399  or more just  for a video card.

I usually wait until prices go down a good bit before I upgrade.

269 US $ is a very good price for a 9700pro.
