ATI Radeon Vs NVidia Geforce

[celcius]

The only ati card I've owned was an x800 pro. It was a great card, but I've always preferred nvidia myself.

The last really good nvidia card was gf 6600gt, relation price to power of course, since that time I couldn't find any for myself, when I'm looking on Radeons that for same money I have to spent for nvidia I can buy two awesome Radeons for crossfire and have at least two times more powerful graphics for the price, it's not hard for me to choose. I liked nvidia but I was very dissapointed of their few last series - 7,8,9,2xx - all of them are really way behind ATI. For me nvidia will really have to do better than that to make me to buy one of their cards in the future.

Bye bye nvidia, at least till it's not a real competition for ATI.

To hell with ATI!!!My PC originaly had an ATI RADEON X1300 VisionTek with 512 MB of Vram,it showed minor hardware problems since it's first year of use and about two months ago it DIED without a warning.Now I have a NVidia Geforce 9800 GT with 1GB of Vram and most of the emus(Dolphin and many others)work much better with it.Also some non-emu games that had vsync or antialiasing troubles started to work perfectly with the new card.

Sorry dude but computers still are not easy to use for noobs, it's easy to break something in it if u ain't got at least basic knowledge about pc. Better buy a console.

Nvidia makes better cards than ATI but they're way more expensive. ATI gives more bang for t3h buck.

I tried to buy a ATI graphics card twice. Was going to be upgrades to the NVidia card I had. Both times, my games ran slower using the ATI cards than when I used the older NVidia. I tried adjustments and making sure all the graphic drivers were up to date, but the performance really took a dive. So now, I will not buy anything but NVidia.

My personal experience with ATI? They rock. At least this one does. I max out many games and it plays great. Brawl has 0% slowdown when AF and AA is 16X! And about the sound that its HDMI port has, it's a Realtek HD audio chipset. Very good for onboard sound, but incoparable to my X-Fi...

Nvidia hands down, I had a lot of problems with Catalyst 9.4.
