Well i finally got some cash and im ready to upgrade my other PC, i dont want to really spend more than about 200, but how do you think these cards will be for playing Doom 3, HL2, UT2k4, FarCry, Serious Sam 2, FEAR, etc, I already own most of those games, i just want to be able to play them >_<

Hehe, with the latest Omega Drivers, I can basically set Doom 3 on High Detail and my Radeon 9800 Pro renders everything without much lagging (except in certain spots).

These video card debates are kind of moot if you ask me. Lots of ATI users have complained that they've had nothing but trouble with nVIDIA, and nVIDIA users have complained that they've had nothing but trouble with ATI cards.

 

It really boils down to what kind of hardware one has, what drivers you have for the hardware, what video card model you have, and what drivers one uses for his/her video card. Add these factors together, and you'll either get something that's flocking awesome or something that's totally crap.

 

It's just like the console wars thing. Fanboys will forever, speaks with high praise about their favorite company, while trashing and grinding the opposition to the ground.
