I might've already posted a topic like this, but I've rethought my choices. (Getting a cash boost via birthday money doesn't hurt too much either.)

So, I've narrowed down my choices to the 3 listed in the title.
They're all around the same price, so I'm just wondering which will give me the most bang for my buck.

Well by my experience, i can tell you that the 9800 gt is an amazing card, like 8800.The 4650 believe me, it should not be  even be in the row of choices (in my opinion).The 220 i dont know much but the reviews, comparing with the 9800, the 220 goes down.
I hope it help

Both the 9800GT and 8800GT are pretty much identical. In my opinion as they both obliterate the 4650 and GT220 which is reflected in all fair tests (benchmarks).

Try not to get a 9800GT GREEN edition, because they have lower clock speeds of around 550mhz instead of 600mhz for a vanilla 9800GT or 700mhz for some factory overclocked versions. They call it "green" because it uses less power and doesn't require a 6 pin PCI-E connector.

Hi, NNNG.
I have a XFX 9800 gt without the 6 pin conector and it has 600mhz clock speed. And she can goes up to 725 mhz.So not all "green" are equal i guess.

Thanks for the info guys. And one more thing, at my best buy they have a GT 250 on sale for $100, off from its normal $200. Is it worth it to get?

If you mean GTS 250, then yes.

I would hop right on that GTS 250 if I were you. But go onto Newegg or another site and read reviews for the card though to see if it is worth it.

Alright, I decided to get the GT 240. It was also on sale, (The GTS 250's were sold out)
I got a 450 Watt power supply to go with it.
I'm looking forward to installing it now.
