    I go with whoever offers the best price/performance ratio. My last card was a Radeon 8500 LE overclocked from 250/250 to 275/300 (RIP). My current card is an XFX 5900 NonUltra flashed to 5950 bios and overclocked from 400/800 to 525/975.

    As soon as one releases a new card - nVidia 6800 ati already have one ready x800 and vice versa, its a conspiracy, its all a conspiracy to make us go crazy.

    BTW if u want a great VIVO card the best is the ATI All in Wonder, features are over and above the rest, for now though i guess nVidia

    Latest from Max PC has the ATI x800 winning in real life tests vs the Nvidia 6800. The opposite is shown in benchmarking software (which I don't think should ever be the basis for anything but seeing the diff. in an OC).

    I use ATI, just because I always have (aside from some el cheapo and matrox stuff). No real reason.

    I thing I like most about Nvidia is its website. Just one driver to update and its really simple to find.

    Unlike ATI where its, last time I checked, a maze...
