Radeon 9000 Pro > Geforce 4 MX series
Radeon 9500 Pro > Geforce 4 Ti series
Radeon 9700 Pro > Everything else :p

A bit simplified of course, but most any new Radeon card will be a good buy.

Yeah, ATI\'s drivers suck so bad...  Wait, don\'t they make some of the fastest cards around? Oh yeah. Thought so.

cliche?

its a known and well established fact

think ATI remains in a distant 2nd place for no reason?

2-3 more years of thinning the market out and they will be back in the closet

Lol, ATI fanatic. I\'ve never owned an ATI card. Nor an AMD processor for that matter. :p

/me gets a sudden feeling of deja vú

/me hugs his 3dfx card
