That is nvidia right.. the market leader? I need a new card.. I had the 8500 on order, but now I am wondering.. keep it or get the ti 200.. with the nvidia I get the market leader.. and then compatibility issues are minimal.. but maybe not.. tell me.

It's not like ATI is a minor player or anything. They are pretty big also so you can't go wrong with either one. Personally, I'm very cheap so I went out and bought the GeForce 2 Ti today for $150, cause I don't have extra $50 for the Radeon 7500, which I probably would have gotten instead if I had the cash :).

No worries Rahminator.. it's probably a better card anyways.. the 8500 benched far better than the 7500 did.

I think you made a good choice! besides, it's not like that card would run games like crap or anything.. expect nothing less than smooth as silk at normal resolutions of course...

Well Zarich the choice is clear
Go with the Ti 200 if you fast gaming, Geforce 3 levels now
Or go with 8500 for good gaming, but wait a long while til good drivers actually come out
