ATI > Nvidia atm. For what we are sayin now its pretty much equal, like defuzion said, cuz u can unlock pipelines on the x800 to make it more powerful. and the 1900xl is best of all.
I too highly suggest the radeon 9250, only 30$ and you can get sweet framerates at 400*300 with everthing turned way down. ======================= also, I don't know why anyone would recomend the 9800... the x800(while being similarly priced) is clearly superior and the x1800 clearly superior over that. here are the only 9800s you can get off newegg... http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....srchInDesc=9800 the reason why the price went down is because EVERYTHING came down when the 7800GT came out. that 7800 outperforms two 6600s in SLI and the 6600s outperform a 9800 if I am not mistaken.
haha get a 6600GT they said to me to get it and its good as um plays BF2 very well on medium and MOH pacific assault good as on highest and yeah get about 100fps with most games
