What do you think of the next gen ATI Evergreen (HD5xxx) vs the upcoming GF100/Tesla/GT300 (GTX3x0) cards. Who is going to win, my money is on Tesla. |

I'll be the first to admit that I prefer Nvidia, but in my lifetime I have never played favorites, and have owned a wide variety of video cards (some of which you guys have never heard of), I simply buy the best card for the buck. Diamond stealth II g460, which used an Intel I740 chip (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel740) 3dfx voodoo 2 card Geforce 2 Geforce fx5200 ATI 9600xt Geforce 6600gt Geforce 7800gt Geforce 9600gso Geforce 9800GX2 <--- In my main computer I also still have the GF2, a GF4TI, and a 7600gt (in my house server). They are all AGP cards, so kinda useless. I also have owned a variety of processors. Intel 486 25mhz <---- Gave away Intel PI 233mhz <---- Gave away, unfortunately had a voodoo 2 in it Intel PII 400mhz <--- My mom used it until about 6 months ago, I still have it AMD K6-2 500mhz <--- laptop, power adapter broke, trashed Intel P4 1.5ghz <--- gave to a friend, now unused Intel P4 3.4ghz <---- sold to Splak:EvilPoptart AMD Athlon 1.0 @ 1.2ghz <--- the old TS server, sitting unused now AMD Athlon XP 2800 2.08 @ 2.28ghz <--- my media server AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800 2.0 @ 2.4ghz <---- sold for use as a media server AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800 2.4 @ 2.75ghz <--- sold to Splak:Kaz, back at my house for upgrades Intel Xeon 3350 (quad) 2.66 @ 3.4ghz <--- current pc AMD Phenom II Quad 3.2ghz <---- Splak server (all but the pub) @= Overclocked speed All that being said, I will have to see how it performs, and if it matches/beats ATI, then I will get Nvidia because of the PhysX. But the data I have says Nvidia will win ( http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=88&pgno=7 ): ----------------------Pixel rate ---- Texture Rate ----- Memory Bandwith Geforce GTX360 ---- 36,400 ----- 72,800 ------------ 224 Geforce GTX380 ---- 44,800 ----- 89,600 ------------ 281.6 ATI HD 5850 --------- 23,200 ---- 52,200 ------------ 128 ATI HD 5870 --------- 27,200 ---- 68,000 ------------ 153.6 Geforce 9800GX2 --- 19,200 ---- 76,800 ------------ 128 <---My card |

"ATI 9600xt " Oh man, I had that card until a few months ago, bought it back in '03 I think haha. I'm now on a ATI Radeon HD 4670 on my laptop. I can watch youtube videos in HD at a framerate higher than 2 FPS now! (oh shit!) Even though I've never bought a nVidia card after having to put up with a lemon from them that put scanlines all over the screen, I'm gonna say that they'll win this one. :P |

Nvidia always wins for dominating the market and having the most powerful, but for the most bang for the buck I think ATI wins this round. |

At this moment, yes, because their cards are "out" and by "out" I mean they sold a few hundred and then ran out, no more supply (for most of this year). So GTX260 beats a card you can't buy (and is really cheap for how powerful it is). |
