i like them both, but most games are optimized for nvidia cards,.. and as im about only gaming with my pc, so for me Nvidia is better atm.

I do agree that ATI has some great technology, such as AVIVO and HDR+FSAA, however nVidia also has some great technology.

Its soooooooo damn silly to pick one over the other and then say that one is better then the other. They are both great company’s and both have great products.

What’s good this year is not necessarily going to be what's good next.. I'd much rather pick a product because it's the best which means NVIDIA’s 6800GT over ATI's X800 Pro this year. Last time around it would have been ATI 9800Pro or XT model over just about all the NVIDIA FX series but unfortunately in my case I could only afford the 9600Pro at that time :-(..

It all comes down to who has the better product at the time.. I'm all about the best bang for the buck because too many good things are missed out when we blindly follow one company because we like it's name.

Also here's the proof for you all. It's that sort of attitude is why the 9800pro/XT is the around the same price and sometimes more then the much better X800 Pro, it's because people dont research and dont really know what they are buying 9x out of 10.. It's a fact ;-)... It's also a fact that this sort of attitude has many people thinking that the 9800Pro is still ATi's top product even when they know of the exsitance of the X800Pro.

He's right. The x1900 xtx is better than nvidia's 7900 gtx this year. but last few years nvidia has been the leader. It matters what each companies high end card is better at the time.

Blue didnt mention anything about the x1900XTX/7900GTX in that post.

Not to mention that he said that a long time ago when the X series was just coming out...

Well.. My 2 cents..

nVIDIA is a bastard of a company. They will stop at nothing to get to the top, including crushing anyone that gets in their way. I absolutely hate their business ethics and refuse to support them.

If you want raw power, nVIDIA often seems to be the way to go, although ATi will come back here and there and put out a product that will stomp all over them.

If you want IQ, ATi is the way to go. So I guess it's just personal preference. Any nVIDIA card I've had I've hated with a passion. I absolutely hate their drivers. They can never seem to get them right. They fix one game just to break two more. Incredibly frustrating.
