FPS limiter, any advantage?

Understand, but for those who want multi monitor support the AMD is probably the way to go.

de we know if Nvidia runs better than ATi and vice versa, or they more or less the same?

From my own experience I had problems with my crossfire setup using 2 1 gig 5770's, so I took them out and put in a single 1 gig Nvidia gtx 460 and have not had any problems since.

I noticed if you do search around for a bit there is a few folks who are having problems with ATI. The cards I think are ok but it is drivers that are the problem. I had big graphic issues with ArmaII when I was using ATI also.

So I am sticking with Nvidia :thumbup:

But peronnally I never had any problem with ATI, even with crossfire, so I already bought a new ATI card, wich was in special, costing about 60$ less than a Nvidia 570.

But thnx a lot for your answer :thumbup::joystick:

Never Had an issue with either. I however have noticed alot of games are developed around nvidia cards. Only issue I ever had with ATI was a few games didnt run with ATI drivers until they updated them. So the way I look at it is ATI is more for movies and multimedia and Nvidia is for games. But like I said never really had problems with either. I will however be sticking with Nvidia only because I like their setup better. It seems more user friendly. But to answer the question does one run better. I would say probably not. Both will give you the best they can!

Agreed. After being burned far too many times with their crappy drivers back in the 80's and 90's by ATI (I lived not too far from their main Office and had friends who worked there), I swore never to touch touch their products again.

 

Thankfully the Monster 3Dfx came along and the rest is history ;-)

 

So even though they may have a good card now, I MUCH prefer Nvidia's track record of drivers and the ability to go back to older drivers when the new ones "kack out" for a certain program or game.

 

Apples and Oranges, AMD and Intel, Chevy and Ford, BMW and Ducati.... everyone has their own personal preference...

P.S. Besides, Nvidia products just look cooler ;-)
