I would rather use NVIDIA as I've heard many excellent things about it such as graphics quality is excellent. However I also use a laptop at home running on win vista home pre, using ati raedeon not sure what model graphics card but it runs games such as microsoft flight sim x deluxe perfectly.

Nvidia all the way for me. I have always used Nvidia (with the exception of an ATI Radeon X1600 PRO which I bought cheap) and I can't fault their cards. I am currently only using a 1GB GeForce 8500GT but I will be getting a 9 series card soon after christmas.

nVidia all the way..

nVidia graphic drivers are far more stable than the ATI/catalyst bollocks..

(having just bought an Asus 4650 1GB HDMI) I keep on having to re-install the graphics drivers at every cold boot of the PC with windows XP Pro.

Prior to this, I've stuck with the Riva TNT/ TNT2 and GeForce chipset based cards without a problem for 9 years and wish I hadn't changed now.

Onto fleabay the ATI card will go if this issue isn't corrected in the next Catalyst release.

BGF cards with nvidia chipset,the lifetime warranty has been good for me for at least 4 times and when the card finally died i got a free upgrade.

NVidia is reliable and it has good customer feedback as well.
