Hi. So, I'm not the greatest with computers, but I saw two desktops with the same specs around the same price. However, one has the ATI card and one has the Nvidia. Can someone tell me which one is better please.

The 5570 is much better than the Geforce 420.
But it would be better to go for at least a 5670 to play games.
Anyway if you want to choose just between these two take the 5570, is a good gpu, and you would be able to play any game in medium settings.
 
Btw, why are you deciding between specifically the 5570 and the GT420? What prices are they for? We might be able to find you a good deal if you tell us your price range and computer specs like CPU (eg. E5300), Power Supply (manufacturer and wattage), and motherboard model (can be read somewhere on it).
