In late 2003-2004, ATI pulled ahead in the benches for a bit, but once the next generation came out, Nvidia took the lead again. Sony just signed a big deal with Nvidia, and the next PS will run Nvidia chips. I have owned a fair number of both types of cards, and ATI has some of the worst support I have ever seen, while Nvidia's Forceware suite continues to be amazing, and only improves with each card gen.

You will get into a new gen ATI for cheaper though, as the new Nvidia cards are about $500.


Anyway, my latest desk....




Hmmmm, or not. Graphic manager appears to not be working anymore

....the upload feature seems to be broken (image only 400k)
Yes!! As you might have noticed there was a big hype about Doom 3 being best run on an ATI. Well, in the end, at the very last moment too, nVidia got the sticker. That just shows you how good they can kick butt. ATI is best for running with an Intel and it runs fine with AMD. nVidia runs best with AMD but, you can get lucky and run it with an Intel with no problems. Most of the time you will have problems. They don't work good together. I had a brand new 140 dollar card crap out on me after a week of use.

Also you should take a gander at the Versus Project over at www.cubadust.com : http://www.cubadust.com/versus/

It's largely vector art and a worthy slide through. Oh and a HUGE resource for finding new artists.

Randomly visiting for now
Here's my new one, I tried streching it but it got blurry, so I just put it in the centre with my icons all around. My actual desktop screenshot was too big in size to attach, so after fiddlying I gave up and just posted the image.
