I've been a ATI fan for many years and have been using raedon cards since the 9800. Since AMD bought ATI the driver quality has gone down significantly. I've been waiting for about 3yrs for them to fix the atikmpag blue screen the some games get. I seens dozens of this issue in forums across the net and AMD ignores it completly and as far as I can tell refues to even to acknowledgment this issue exisit. UPS is delivering me 2 new
GIGABYTE|GV-N560UD-1GI GTX560TI which I will run in SLI. It's with a heavy heart that I way wave good bye to AMD with my middle finger held.

Just out of curiosity what cards where you using? I personally have not seen any issues with the HD4850 or the HD4890 in my home!

I still have Radeon 9800, X1550, X1650 Pro, and HD4850 in my home and my brother's, and they're still RUNNING just FINE, never had a major problem (actually never) with ATI cards... :)

Awwww, stay together for the kids? :-(

Fine. See ya. Don't let the door hit you on the way out, BUDDY.

Just kidding. But I will say that Nvidia isn't gpu salvation. They have problems too. Everything pc does. That's why when you have a website about PC's you have to have a forum too.
