LOL… fanboy.
ATI has the fasted single card solution and the better integrated solution but Nvidia has the dual card market, mid, and low range.
Here is the bang for the buck breakdown as I see it.
integrated = ati express x200
$150+ = nvidia 7600gt
$250+ = nvidia 7900gt (current sweetspot)
$350+ = ati x1900xt
$450+ = ati x1900xtx
$500+ = nvidia 7900gt SLI
$900+ = nvidia 7900gtx SLI
If only ATI could streamline crossfire enough, it would easily knock nvidia off the dual card pillar. As it stands, CF is just clumsy compared to SLI. Anyways, lists like these change almost monthly so who knows who will be on top in a few weeks. Plus, it is time to start looking forward to DirectX 10 and both company’s next gen chips too.
