ATI's have been known and proven to take more of a pwoer load without overheating ang damaging itself or crahisng your computer, but then again Nvidia has a lot of technology that they hope will be used someday. The thing with that is , sometimes it is never used and you just paid for technology that does no good. Nvidia also scores higher FPS in games, but when you run multiple programs and a game (such as mohaa, missionary, ventrilo at the same time) ATI scores higher. Nvidia also has reported problems of frame skipping after more than four hour of continuous game use. In my opinion, for a video card you want to run games smoothly and not use too many system resources (such as power supply ATI-250w, Nvidia-330w)then you go with ATI. If you want ultra performance and "future" technology you get a nvidia
