ive got a GeForce FX 5600 with a p4 2.6 ghz, 1gig ram etc and im well happy with it! i run all the games with graphics on maximum, also running a 1280x1024 resolution and it flies! never used a ATI but i can vouch for my 5600!

9800 pro. People dont see to realise that the fx's arent support in new games coming out. See if you can play half life 2 also get 128mb version refresh rates are slower on 256

yes ATi are better than Geforce, thats why i have the 9800XT 256mb DDR and not the Geforce 5950, simply cos the radeon is better

Im sorry but recently i have built two machines, both same spec execept for graphics card and case.
My sisters machine (built first) has a Geforce FX 5700 8X with 128 smegs of DDR.
Mate specifically requested he wanted a ATI Radeon 9600XT with 128 smegs of DDR.
My mates graphics absolutely blew my sisters away.

the XT models on ATi are higher performance, the XT models on GeForce are the slow ones, watch what you buy.
