Definitely the GeForce.  Nvidia has a much faster product and driver
development cycle.  ATI has been the leading vendor of video chipsets, but
it looks like Nvidia is about to eclipse them because they are just faster
to market.

Performance-wise, the GeForce is a winner.  It's just very expensive...

Hello List,

O.K.  I've asked all my geek friends (and I have plenty), but would now like
to throw the discussion out to the knowledgable people on this list.  I am
agonizing over a video card decision and would appreciate your input.  Price
is not the issue, just performance.  I am looking for 3D gaming performance,
not regular video performance (should be a matter of course when 3D
performance is increased, shouldn't it?).

I've narrowed my choices down to two.  The ATI Radeon 64MB and the GeForce 2
Ultra 64MB.  Thoughts, opinions, rants, raves?  Thanks in advance.
