Question

nVidia FX 5950 or Ati 9800 Xt


I was researching on the internet the better graphics card, and i came up with nothing. I was just wondering what would be better to put in my system:

p4 2.66 800 FSB
1024 mb DDR 400 mhz dual channel
asus p4p800 motherboard

ATI is a good card. I'm a Nvidia person myself. But as far a benchmarks go ATI is the best. This also depends of what you have to spend new cards are nice but aren't cheap. So how much were you looking to spend?

The 9800 XT as far as I know is a good card. It did well in the reviews. But I personal don't know much about these card as I have never used one. But from what I have heard there really good.
