well i think he could have done better by you to choose the 1gb 9800 because it was only $50 or less price difference but it would have been a major improvement over the 9500.
i agree with your logic, i never buy the top line #1 stuff either and i also choose the 2nd best stuff to save money.
9500 is still "sorta" new tech but the choice he made was to get you the 4th or 5th best card and while it was still "good" it wasnt what i would call a very good card which is what you look for to future proof your system.
the difference in a 9500 to a 9800 is BIG, that extra $50 to get the 9800 would have given you a very big improvement for a little bit of money so that is why it struck me as an odd choice to make when building a system.
