yeah that new ATI card looks really good and surprisingly affordable, I use ATI because they're cheaper than Nvidia's, but if I could buy any card without having to worry about price, I'd defiently get an Nvidia SLI card.

nVidia is my preference here. Haven't had any issues with their cards at all, and I use nVidia cards in all four machines. I have friends that have had issues with their ATI cards, mainly driver issues. So I would say go with nVidia yeah you might pay a little more for the cards, but you won't be dissappointed ;)

I have had nothing but unpleasant experiences with ATI cards working properly, and the general consensus is that Nvidia supports their cards with updated drivers better.

It would take a lot of convincing to get me to ever purchase an ATI card again.

I hope they stick around though, because at least they keep Nvidia's prices in check, in theory at least.

I've never owned an ATI card but my Nvidia cards have never failed me.
