The 5900 Ultra > 9800 Pro in an equal amount of tests. One card is great for AA and high resolutions, and the other is better for casual gaming. It bothers me when people say that one card is simply better than the other. It also depend which system you're using it in. Both cards are great; there isn't enough difference in power to notice anything.
Now, if you take the 9800 XT and 5950 Ultra into consideration, that's a different story. There seem to be some who say the 9800 XT is slaughtering the 5950 while others are saying the exact opposite. Only time will tell which is better (if either of them). The main conclusion drawn so far with both new cards is: too expensive for such a small increase in power. Hell, you can get a GeForce FX 5900 Ultra 256 MB for $330 on NEWEGG now. What a deal. I might pick one up later this year.
