As the title says, I'm looking to upgrade from a 7800GT to something newer. So far I've found these cards, but I'm looking for opinions on which one to pick and possibly alternative options.
Code:
card		price	brand
9600GSO		70 	MSI, 384MB
9600GT		82	Asus
9800GT		100	Leadtek/Gainward

3850		66	Sapphire
4670		65	Asus/Sapphire
4830		92	XFX
My current rig is in my sig, but I should note that I plan on updating to C2D when I have the money, in which case I would like to keep the videocard. It's not an option to just make a whole new system, and keep this one as is, the video card fan is going bad and replacing it is pretty much pointless. The card needs to be as silent as possible when idling, noise at load I don't mind that much. Not sure if it makes a difference, but my PSU is a Tagan 480W from 2005.

I play mostly old games, but at 1600*1200 (19" CRT if anyone's curious) preferably, and looking to play Diablo 3 for example with some eye candy in the future.
