Graphic Card Any Good?

I educated myself when I first started building these systems,
through overclock.net and other sites like it
they give a thorough chart and comparison if you look at several different
site's
If you look at this chart that is posted in a link I will post,
It shows each card and which card compares to which card
all cards made by one company do not share the same frame rate and
reputation's
so saying all of one brand is better is False

here is the chart

Summary

There you have it folks; the best cards for the money this month. Now all that’s left to do is to find and purchase them.
Don’t worry too much about which brand you choose, because all of the cards out there are close to Nvidia’s and ATI’s reference designs. Just pay attention to price, warranty, and the manufacturer’s reputation for honoring the warranty if something goes wrong.
Also remember that the stores don’t follow this list. Things will change over the course of the month and you’ll probably have to adapt your buying strategy to deal with fluctuating prices. Good luck!

It seems to me that anyone that posts that their opinion is that nvidia has performed well for them should be bashed by the people that think ATI is better
No matter what.

I say let the guy make an educated decision.
Not well I wanted to build a cheap computer so I got ati and it works good
I posted links and charts to places he can compare and decide for himself.
Is there something wrong with that?

Or do you have to impose your Beliefs so that everyone believes as you do

So now dont take this the wrong way

all nvidia should go out of business and toss all the cards in the trash
Right?

and all NVIDIA cards are garbage. Period.

Is this what you are saying?

yes i read about Apple going to ati because of heat issue's and GPU failures

this due to the generation of chips Nvidia has used
but as apple and Nvidia state as soon as the new chips are out and the heating problem solved Apple will be going back to Nvidia
as supported by this article
http://www.hardwareinsight.com/apple-to-replace-nvidia-gpus-with-ati-radeon-4000-series/

so indeed you are correct for the time being.
