So, opinions...

Which is better. An ATI video card or an nVidia one?

Last I checked the GeForce 8800 series were the current frontrunners in the race to render the face of god. They pretty easily outstripped the ATI contenders of the time (I think the 1900 series, though they were about to be replaced or upgraded or something).

We're talking 100+ fps at 1600x1280 on COD4. Crysis still chugged along, but I think that was mostly because of their physics engine trying to calculate everything in the world every frame, rather than some failing of video technology.

Do they have the SLI drivers out for those yet? Of course, I don't know if my current mobo/power supply can handle an 8800.
