**Archangel** · 06-08-2005, 06:22 PM

i have used both brands, and they are both doing great

sometimes ti has a better flagship, sometimes nvidia has it.. well.. hope they keep fighting each other.. cuz we get btter cards cuz of that

ATI has more superiority in comparison of performance and price.
nVidia has more superiority in stability.
You can purchase better ATI cards with less money.
Overal it's hard to say which is stronger than the other.

NVidia has superior cards, but I think they should have an All in wonder type card

ATI has had better particle and shadow rendering for the past few generations and there are alternative drivers not made by ATI avaliable

NVIDIA all the way, for one ATi has slack drivers, when NVIDIA release cards, they actually have releasable drivers, and not Alpha's or Beta's... Also NVIDIA drivers work better than ATi's under Linux

I like the fact that NVidia's drivers are universal more or less, and that you don't have to worry about what exact card you have so much!

happens to me every time i re-install my 9200 64MB card. You have to set up the properties right, enable/disable alot of stuff. then all the laggy scrolling, jumpy animations goes away. it wasn't the card, just your settings, because thats how every ATi card has been for me.

jjsevdt, WHAT?!?!?! Nothing is superior to anything else when it comes to graphics cards, other than generations and technical specs (same generation cards compare pretty well to each other), so don't say that. I like ATI, it seems to me that it's like AMD, but the wierd thing is NVidia and AMD partnered up with each other, although you would think that the flashier Nvidia's and Intel's would. Strange and bad in my opinion, I mean that's why my laptop sucks, because Nvidia cuts corners to keep their money and paired with my Athlon 64 3200+, it brings it down quite a bit (MX440).

Well with the 7800 GTX out now its no contest. More performance than 2 6800 ultras in SLI. Its ATIs move.
