Which one is better i am just curious?? my bro is looking for a new card...

thanks,
guys

tell me your guys opinion on the poll

thanks
 
In terms of speed? ATi card. In terms of features? Geforce. SM3.0 and all the goodies (2.0b for Radeons X800/X850).
 
It's a tough choice. If you're talking stock 7600GT I'd go X850XT....... but get the XFX 7600GT XXX (590/1600 I believe) for $217 @ Monarch, I'd recommend that over an X850XT PE.
 
SM3 is too important to miss out on now - even 'not so new' games like Splinter Cell:Chaos Theory only give choice of SM1 or SM3 and the difference between those is noticeable. Plus 7 Series will have improved HDR efficiency amongst other things. The card has advantage of lower power consumed too

Chaos Theory has a SM2 patch, which makes it look almost the same as SM3, including HDR. I tried it back when I had my x800. But if SM3 is important to you, then get the 7600gt.
