Well... I used to be a Nvidia fan... then i read tons of reviews and bought an ATI 9800 Pro, I have been extremely pleased with it... I can Overclock it way past the stock speed of the ATI 9800XT, but the only thing my 9800 Pro doesnt have is 256MB of RAM

I love ATI
Still have a nice PC but I just switched to a hella nice mac

well i jsut bought a FX5950 ultra and have the ram clocked at 1.05 ghz so im pleased at that...it can handle anything you chuck at it.

i am not debating which is better but the 5950 has run flawlessly for me and im sure the Ati has got good performance too its just down to personaly opinion kinda like amd vs intel lol

I bet the gap has closed now though with the release of the forceware drivers. I saw a huge difference in performance with my FX5600 128mb card. In fact its working so well now................... Why couldn't it just stay broken!
