I have two computers that are roughly similar--my wife's and my own. In my computer I have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 256 card. My wife's machine has a GeForce FX 5500 256 card (and never uses its capabilities).
I've been having problems with the dual monitor setup on my ATI card and so I've been thinking of swapping to the GeForce card. Problem is, my work demands heavy 3D rendering capability and I'm not sure if that will suffer.
So my question is:
Which is a faster / more capable card?
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 256MB
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 256MB
One thing that is working in the NVIDIA card's favor is that its dual monitor capabilities are better. I know nothing about the difference in performance.
Thank you in advance,
