Don't worry about that it would only be a marginal difference in game. I would either wait for the 9xxx series or get the MSI 7970 if you con't wait. I've heard that the XFX cards are really loud but they do have really good warranties.

Anyone knows the prices on hd 9000

No-one knows, or if they do, they are not allowed to say. Any price you see is likely speculation.

Marginal difference, no need to worry about it at all.

Get whichever is cheaper and overclock it yourself. They're both great overclockers and it's a shame to not do so.
