ATI 9600 or nVidia 5600?
Which one of these cards is better for general use and game playing?
Cheers. Bobby

Like most nVidia/ATi questions, this comes down to personal preference. I
prefer the nVidia over the competing ATi card. Seeing as how this _IS_ comp.perhips.videocards.nvidia...what would you expect? :P Statistically no contest. "Bobby" wrote in message ... Which one of these cards is better for general use and game playing? Cheers. Bobby

I was the same until they built their FX series of cards..7 Nvidia based
cards...until the FX5600 turned out to be junk...all the specs pointed to ATI..so I tried it....still have 2 Nvidia cards that I will not get rid of unless they burn out.A G3Ti200 and a G4Ti4200.

He didn't say pro in his subject line though, the np is a slower card than
the pro... "Darthy" wrote in message ... On Wed, 14 Jan 2004 18:21:36 -0000, "Bobby" wrote: Which one of these cards is better for general use and game playing? 9600Pro hands down...

Really, no ****?
If he hunts around, he can get a 9600Pro for about $130~150... about the same price as a 9600. The 9600se (ATI's fx5200) is $95~130!
