And... the forces of ATI line up on the one side.... and the forces of Nvidea line up on the other........ and weapons are checked......  and the silence is palpable.   Soon it begins again.  The never ending struggle of good and evil.   ;)



Sort of seriously.......  the one you actually own and have paid for already.


And a bit more serious....... you are likely to get a number of opinions on this.  In a sense, it sort of depends on what criterion you use.  

And no matter WHICH one you buy....... in about 2 months... it'll be outdated  ;D.

best,
