I feel like such a traitor

[sirspotticus]

Well, my Geforce3 should get here by Thursday evening. Yeah, I know it's a little late to be jumping on the Geforce3 bandwagon but my old Radeon isn't cutting it anymore. Anyways, I am sorry ATI.. I said I would never do it but i did. Just please get the R300 out SOON and at a more justifiable price than this ti4600 garbage.. that is all

Your traitor! How could you live with yourself???

Only joking! I abandoned my faithful Matrox card a couple weeks back in favour of a shiny new ATI card. At then end of the day you have to buy what?s best at the time ? being loyal to one company ends up costing you more cash for inferior products in the long run.

BTW, why didn?t you go for a Radeon 8500??

Yes, why didn't you?

I feel like a traitor too

After having a Riva 128, TNT, TNT2, GF2, GF2 Pro, GF3 Ti-200 I have purchased a Radeon 8500 Retail.

My first foray into the world of ATI.

I feel like a traitor too. After owning and loving AMD for so long, I bought my girlfriend a Dell system with a Pentium 4 CPU. I just couldn't pass up the great deal. I have NVIDIA in both my computer (Geforce 4 Ti 4400) and her computer (Geforce 4 MX 440) though.

mostly because i make all my purchases on impulse

its been a long while since i bought a video card, and i didn't realize how far that ati has come with the 8500 drivers. after reading up i'm actually pretty impressed.
but for the next big batch of games i will be playing non-stop(nwn, ut2, doom...) i think i'm going to want something better than an 8500 anyways.

the plan here is to spend as little money as possible so i have some left once the big time cards come out in late summer/fall. problem right now is winxp=horrible gaming.

I thought I would ALWAYS buy Nvidia....I feel the same way about AMD. As of right now I will ALWAYS buy AMD

Just out of curiosity, what GF3 did you get that costs substantially less
than an R8500?

I've been an Nvidia fan since way back when. Now I'm considering a Radeon 8500... I too, feel like a traitor. But then again, I just gave up Intel for AMD. I guess the price/preformance ratio is the most important part.
