facts:

-Nvidia overprice BS, but they tamed up recently due to heat by ATI

- ATI drivers suck

- nvidia drivers only rock, because of their gaming market monopolization

- ATI yields better raw card performance than nvidia for the same amount spend

- however said performance may not be achievable in actual game play due to shitty drivers

tldr: nvidia generally less hassle, and lol fanboyism/paying out of your nose, while ATI is better price/performance ratio, but rofl drivers.

both are viable choice, and its almost really up to who have the "best card of that period" or "best performance/value ratio of that period"  in which case, at the moment GTX460 is on the upper hand.

At least ATI doesn't release driver that fries your card.

I've used both ATI(2 years) and Nvidia(6 years). I have no problems from them. From the news, both of them have their bad times though.
