1. I find this review somewhat useless. Without comparing quality of screenshots, one against the other, one is unable to determine the quality difference between the two graphics cards. It has been pointed out in other reviews that Nvidia is not playing by the same rules and are not providing what the customer is paying for, specifically AF and AA at top settings.

2. Thats cool one,wonder if it sounds extremly bad inside the Comp...? . i have an 9700 Pro connect3d ands wonder if its worth to uppgrade to this ot wait to the next ati GPU 'R400' ?

Your graphics card will work very well in all existing and upcoming games until R420 and NV40 come out. Even after these new graphcis solutions are released, it will take quite a bit of time before the games arrive, where RADEON 9700 becomes too slow.
So, I do not think you should hurry with an upgrade today.

3. HAHAHA! What an unfair compare between an voltmodded GF FX5950U against an unmodded !! default running Radeon 9800XT.
The Voltmod for the FX looks good but please compare against an voltmodded 9800XT ! This XT voltmodd is simple, i have done it

4. There is obvious bios towards the NVidia card. The ATI card is superior, but you fanboys won't admit that.

5. Hi there,

i upgrade my system from a GeforceTi4600128MB to a Radeon 9800XT 256MB and i am 100% lucky.

By the way, the GF4600 runs only 1 Year and since last week i have colored pixels on every windows screen and the card dosent work. This shows me the quality of nvidia-boards.

Since 2 years nvidia can only follow the outperforming performance from Radeon-chips with high gpu-clock and a very hig memory-clock.

The result is for me clearly and i missed realy a longtime test in reports when they compare ATI & nVidia.

Best regards,
Sweety

6. This must be the most useless review i have ever read...
No conclusion at all...
It really does not help me in my choice of graphics card...
But i have ordered a Sapphire Radeon 9800XT 256MB anyways so why should i care...
Id rather have a Radeon card than som crappy GeForce card that makes my screen settings resize...

Read the pure facts on all 3 of these games. Then open your mouths.

9. AGP RADEON 9800PRO
