X850 Pro 256Mb AGP

Is the X850 Pro 256Mb AGP 8x worth $220?
Will I see a major diff over my 11k 3D01 scoring 9700 pro?
How about flashing? I heard they can go to XT PE...
So they overcock nicely?
If I happen to buy this what waterblock should I get?
Will I bottleneck like a mad man?

System Specs:
Abit KV7
2500+ @ 2.2ghz
2x Geil Value 512mb
