Run Linux and say that again... hell, ATI could make a card that could give me blowjobs while playing tf2 but knowing them they'd have a bug that will make the card bite it off every 2 updates...

I'm not a fanboy of hardware, but I want that hardware to work... Nvidia has a better track record in my experience on that front.

3DFX, BITCHES!  *ahem*  But otherwise, Nvidia.  It's really all about drivers for me.  Even if I have to get mine via a modified inf file since I'm on a laptop.  But yeah, back in the day, I got Jedi Knight II running maxed out at about 50-60 fps on a 64 meg Voodoo 5 5500 PCI.


Re: NVidia vs ATI - Evil Cheese - 05-30-2008

For desktops I've always used NVidia. No reason really. They've always worked well for me, except my little pre driver update HL2 problem, and I'm familiar with their naming/numbering system. I have an ATI on my lappy and it works fine I guess since mostly I just play emulated or DOS games on it. The quality of the cut scenes in Jade Empire on the ATI sucked, but I don't know if that was a hardware problem or a crappy port problem. Maybe one day I may actually do some benchmarking with it.


Re: NVidia vs ATI - 1Trace1 - 05-30-2008

Lol my uncle used to work for 3DFX and he gave me free cards(now he works for linksys and i get free routers). Right now my comp is packin an 8800GT 512mb so Nvidia for me.


Re: NVidia vs ATI - Spore - 05-30-2008

I <3 my Nvidia 8800GT so it is Nvidia for me.


Re: NVidia vs ATI - Versus - 05-30-2008

8800GT = super win.

I usually buy what seems reasonable in price and lately that has been ATI cards.  I know NVidia is better but really I have had no problems with my graphics cards in the past or present.  Currently have a Radeon HD 2900xt and its been holding up pretty nice.  Next comp I get I am going to go NVidia since I have some cash flow coming in.
