I MAY be getting a new computer, I know that a thread like this will probably grow to five pages; but, I am debating as to whether I should get Intel or Amd. And for the video card, nvidia or ATI..I am leaning towards the NVIDIA 5900 256mb. card. Vs. the 9800pro 256mb...due to previous experiences w/ ATI.
One thing I am noticing is that you pay more for intel over AMD. All I want is perfomance & dependability, not sure if the extra cost is worth it.

For compatibility and performance Intel is the way to go. As for the video card, I have always had NVIDIA until the ATI Radeon 9700 Pro came out. I have the ATI and I love it. Absolutely no problems.

As always... IMHO

Only thing is, is that the nvidia benchmarks get better FPS then the 9800 pro 256mb.

IMHO?
