which do you prefere?

When buying hardware you should consider software first, always!

nVidia has the upper hand over ATI in that regard, since most of today's top games are designed with the nVidia card in mind (remember the advertisement: "The way it's meant to be played")

Now, in regard to SH3, please kind in mind that no matter what card you have, even on a super ninja computer, you'll still get poor performance from time to time... it's just wasn't written robustly enough to avoid those strange hickups when in high performance demand situations, even if you're computer can run it blazingly fast on all other situations (Specialy if you mod it)

I never got any problems on my PC running all full with GWX.... HL2 was built with ATI sorry I just loved that game far too much. Anyway ATI is merged with AMD now so.... Carry on. Im personally an AMD/ATI guy but my current system is an AMD/Nvidia shoulda got a C2D but like I said I have a strong AMD BIAS. Anyway with my 7600GT its giving me quite a BIAS to the green team. Oh and for the person who started the post I don't know if you read my other one throughly. I had a 9600XT thats 256mb (different from standard 9600) it pretty much beats the 9250. I upgraded that to a 7600GT. Sorry to say but buying a 9250 would be a giant mistake. No seriously a very very large mistake. The numbers dont always mean everything I think a 6800GS can beat a 7300 (both Nvidia) and the 9250 is ATI so you definately cant compare numbers there but you can most of the time eg 7600GT>6800GS>6600GT>X700>9600XT>9250

Trust me the 9250 is way wat down the ladder.
