get nvidia with ati it's allways trouble with new games needing new drivers because the older drivers causes gfx bugs.

6600gt. i know its a bit more money than either of these, but dude, it is worth it.... and not because im a fanboy either. i was an ati user for the longest time, went from the rage to the 8500 to the 9700pro to the 6600gt.
ill just say that this card was the biggest jump in performance and features ive ever seen. especially considering i layed down over 300 bucks for my 9700. anyways you get shader 3.0, better drivers than catalyst crap(which ive used for yrs), games with more support for nvidia features, ect ect.
i got mine for 160 bucks at zipzoomfly and the best money i ever spent. just try to come up with the extra cash, its worth it.
actually theres some refurbed ones at newegg for 130, and a new leadtek for 150. good deals.

If I could splash out more money etc I would.. But I got a choice between these two.. I'm getting 1 free.. So I just wanna know which one I should take.. Not adding money.. only these 2 to choose from.. Anything beats this Geforce 2 GTS
