Between 4850 GS and 9800GTX+, certain games favors Nvidia and so do 4850 GS. So you can see EA Games will surely have better performance when using Nvidia cards.

If you compare between GTX 260 and 4870, surely GTX 260 is better. 4870 only good on certain occasions against GTX 260 and only marginal.

True, but I`ve heard of ppl doing CF on NForces.

Only the 58 chipset for i7 and SkullTrail can support both SLi and CF

Why so? The lack of the 4850's speed will bog down whatever gains a 1 GB frame buffer will give.

Go with nvidia, if you want better driver support, compatibility and performance.
Also they got physx too, which will enhanced your gaming experience.
Linux still have problem with ATI card and some games still doesn't optimize well even though the card
raw power is greater than GTX280.

Yes, GTX260 216 will beat HD4870 performance in many games.
HD4870 using R700 architecture which is optimized version of R600 (GDDR5, 55nm, 800 steam processor, DirectX10.1 and clock speed)

GTX200 is new architecture. Although it still using Directx 10, I don't see any directx 10.1 games coming or 10.1 is just hotfix for 10 i'm not sure, so don't bother.
Or if you can wait long enough, wait till DirectX 11 card coming out

peace.

I heavily agree with this statement.... If TS don't plan to get multi GPU setup, then any board will be fine.... But my suggestion is still going for NVIDIA bcos of the support for games....

I rather choose GTX260 over 9800GTX+ coz of the performance gap if ur budget allows it....
