I used to be an nvidia fan - switched to ati about 5 years back when for whatever reason nvidia driver support went down the tubes. Yes - I know - they fixed the issues and have gotten back to being excellent. My next card will likely be an Nvidia - for 3 reasons. Price is comparable - as is performance. ATI still has a slight edge on framerate - but color saturation Nvidia wins. As its a rare human who can see over 60 frames a second, I am headed toward where the grass is literally greener on the other side. Since those 2 factors are about even - the last factor is cooling - and right now - nvidia wins this. The new cards from ATI are bloody barnburners - and ATI for some reason hasn't done enough to keep em adequately cooled at stock.
