As far as the video card goes I'm thinking between the "SAPPHIRE RADEON 9800PRO Video Card, 128MB DDR, 256-bit, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP" or the "CHAINTECH GeForce FX 5900 Video Card, 128MB DDR, 256-bit, DVI/VIVO, 8X AGP, Model "A-FX98"".
Stock the ATI is 380mhz core speed and 680mhz ram, while the GeForce is 400mhz core and 850mhz ram.
But from the reviews that I have seen about both the cards, the ATI is slower stock, but they both can be clocked up the 475mhz for the core speed and 960mhz ram speed. From the results the nvidia card has a bit better score.
I've also seen a few posts about the ATI having issues but I've never seen anything about the GeForce.
So what's the deal with the two which one is better???
