What about the newer X series of cards?

X600XT equals 9600XT which is slower than the 9800Pro. X700 is a little bit
faster, but much more expensive.

To get performance over the 9800 Pro level isn't possible with AX Level
cards and $150.

X level cards at or under the $150 range are sub-9800 Pro performance.

I was thinking of getting a NVIDIA 6600GT, but would rather buy ATI.
Guess I'll just have to replace my ATI 9600 with the 6600GT.

Go right ahead. The 9800Pro is a good card, plays all the latest games like
BF2, Republic Commando, Doom3, etc. very smoothly. However, since the
release of the 6600GT there have been few reasons to buy a 9800Pro or
FX5900.

As long as you're considering nVidia, please consider the 6800LE.

I have heard it said that it is a match for the 6600GT and has the
possibility to unlock further hidden potential with the Riva tuner
app. I purchased one recently, and I was able to effectively unlock
all but one pixel shader unit (I think that's what it is). Further,
I was able to overclock it some, but have not yet experimented
extensively. I must say that I would not have been at all happy
with the card without the modifications, and otherwise would
have preferred to spend more. The difference between the
un-modified and modified unit is phenomenal. For me, it was
a great value, but please remember, you may not be as fortunate.

The x700 series are base on the x800 gpu. and it as hdtv Gddr3 ram
witch equal 256bit mem it as also 256 mb of ram and the 9800 come as
128-256mb so look for the 256mb one nothing less.
If u want all the new feature on a budget the x700 sereis is the
videocard to get. the 9800s are old tech.
i know that the x700pro are in some place sell at 250 can or less so
the most important thing to do is shopping around....
