Regarding which is better, that is pretty much all opinion. The leading cards from ATI and NVidia are pretty neck-and-neck. To see some really good reviews, check out Tom's Hardware. (http://www.tomshardware.com/) To get prices, go to Newegg. (http://www.newegg.com/)

The best cards currently on the market from both companies are ATI's X1950XT and NVidia's 8800GTX. Although ATI is coming out with their nw HD 2900XT card this month. It should retail around $450-$600.

P.S. didn't realize the 8800Ultra was out yet. The 8800Ultra is NVidia's best video card, not the 8800GTX. Though the GTX is damn good.

BTW, expect to pay an arm and a leg for your 8800 Ultra.

Saw an EVGA one on Newegg for $829.
