shinji^ · December 4th, 2002

I like nVidia, because it's good on performance. I need performance the most

December 4th, 2002

nvidia all the way

3dfx was better though.

shinji^ · December 4th, 2002

Yeah, I had a Voodoo 2 in the old days. I liked that better

But those days are over now...

Recca · December 4th, 2002

Nvidia for me

**Kellicros** · December 4th, 2002

nVidia, THE BEST.

JAZ · December 4th, 2002

I own a G4ti2000 but Im not voting for nvidia, the only thing holding me back from getting a Radeon9700 is the price.
I liked my old Radeon64ddr vivo card a hell lot more than this G4, ATI's driver dont suck like most ppl say sure the 8500 had bad drivers from what I heard but I only had 1 game that wouldnt run with my Radeon64 and I have had quite a few that wont run with certain driver sets with the G4.....
Things I miss from my old card compared to my G4 are, Radeons TV out wasnt super crappy blurry like my G4, DVD playback was lots better/clearer/didnt skip/didnt have overlapping frames, colours in games were better.
Dont get me wrong I do like the G4 a lot as its fast in most games and it was great value for money..

nvidia making great things posible

T.O.F.K.A.Z · December 4th, 2002

3DFX for the past.
Nvidia for now.
ATi for the future.

I'm satisfied with my GF 4 Ti 4600 but I think ATI willeventually become the best. But at my current state I vote for Nvidia.

Ultragunner · December 4th, 2002

things i voted for nvidia:
1. really good drivers, always updated and always fixing some compatibility issues + bugs (w/ these drivers, i get the best performance + no need to use the fsaa fix in pete's plugins)

2. hidden antialiasing mode in geforce 3 and geforce 4 (8xs in d3d)

3. 3dfx is the best but things change.....

Ninjaa · December 4th, 2002

3Dfx in the past,
nVidia in the meantime,
ATI for now.
ATI for the future.

ready2rumbelX · December 4th, 2002

ATI are gonna go far!!! They are going far!! And don't put down their drivers, cause they resolved this issue by intorducing the 'Catalyst' Drivers, which have fixed all the problems I had, and sped my games up by alot. I'm now raising cash to get either the 9700 PRO or the 9700 A-I-W!!

zukeft · December 4th, 2002

ATi... mainly because I haven't had another card of the brands mentioned.

You're so origanal sometimes , Ninja

felinusz · December 6th, 2002

If your talking about the top models of each of these brands then I would have to go with ATI (9700).

When Nvidia GeForceFX comes out that will (probably) change.

As for drivers, I have had no problems with any of Nvidia's or ATI's drivers.

As for Matrox: Matrox is not comparable to Nvidia or ATI at all.

Hanamichi · December 7th, 2002

I voted for ATI. Their drivers has greatly improved since the 9700's been released.
Hey TerminatorXP, I have a question... how did you get your hands on a 3.06? They arent here in Malaysia yet.

edit: Maybe nVidia's are still the best... aww but ATI aint far behind anyway.

**Shadow Lady** · December 9th, 2002

nVIDIA is not just Drivers, but I like that they releases different cards each time so the users can get the perfect equilibry from money to power :]
