I've been watching these developments. I may add this info to the pinned section if people agree.
More information needs to be added. It needs to be more than just a list. For example, Which ones have the minimum requirements for all games available now? Or what are the best drivers and where to find them? What is the best brand (there are many brands of both ATI and Nvidia). Things like that.
Also I think it's a bit biased to say things like "ATI makes some of the best graphics cards available." Not all their models are better that similarly priced Nvidia products. It depends on which models are being compared.
Alright, thanks for your suggestions. I noticed as I was laying in bed last night that there was not much point to this topic, although it is good information for noobs. Today I plan on adding benchmarks and which ones will meet minimum requirments.
@Adam- I know those arent the cheapest places. I was just giving those links so people could see a pic of the card and some other specs. TigerDirect was easier to find it on then newegg, and it still took about 2 and a half hours. I will work on it some more today.
Like I said, when XGI comes in I will list all of there cards. I'm on this forum all the time, as you all know, and have plenty of time to keep this thread updated.
@VB- I will work on it some more today and hopefully you will like it. Most of the brands are almost equal arent they? I know Asus adds fans and cool stuff but really there cant be too much diff. Some people may think powercolor isnt great, but my benchmarks are awesome and i love it.I think it has gotten votes to be pinned already.
Do you want me to list minimum requirments for good playing or just whats on the box? Sometimes whats on the box will not play the game too smooth...
like I said..ill work on it some more and hopefully yall will like it even better

Which cards did I miss that arent very old? Thanks for your help! I will add the TI cards today.Originally posted by atiVidia@12 February 2004 - 06:33
@bigdawg: u missed a card: actually a lot of cards: but why do I care....
One reason why I didnt want to list which cards are best and stuff is because that will make it more controversial...ATI has made the best DX9 cards in my opinion though.
