Voted ATI. I used to be a nVidia fan but that changed after I purchased a 9800 Pro of eBay. The difference was astounding and blew me away.

Mmm PCI Express sounds really promising. I want to see AMD support it first.

nVidia is really all I've ever known. From my first Vanta LT to Geforce 4 to Geforce FX 5200 Ultra, with digital output and support for my portrait mode LCD. I have no complaints. Drivers are backwards and forwards compatible, too (according to their website).

AMD=ATI, Radeon all the way. I personally think its a matter of if you like your graphics card to come in a red box or a green one. LOL I will say that back in the day, I had a 64mb Nvidia TNT card blow up two monitors. I went back to my Radeon 7200 32mb. I have been convinced since then that ATI chipset is more stable. That doesnt necessarily mean anything though.
