OEM8800GTS dying and would prefer a single slot 9 inch card
Seems the 9800GT would be closest to buy.

If I have to get dual slot then please also recommend
Budget less than $200

XFX made excellent 9800GT's with late revision boards and custom HSF's
that are both quiet and efficient. A 9800GT is the most straight across
replacement for an 8800GTS, be it the 512 or older 320/640 versions.
The newer style 9800GT boards you see here are far more efficient than
the original 8800GT style PCB's that came out; shorter and less power use.
