GeForce Chipset produces higher FPS than the Radeon. <br>
But the Radeon is more feature packed and is one sweet card <IMG SRC="smileys/smile.gif"> + ATi cards have fantastic DVD playback..<br>
<br>
Please don't take the piss out of the Radeon.

Not to mention the prices these days. I'm perfectly happy with my gf1 ddr, but if I had to purchase a new computer now, it would have an ATI radeon 64 ddr vivo in it. From three most important factors price/quality/speed, gf2 cards only have the last at the moment. A thery unfortunate truth for us nvidia card users. <br>
P.S. to me the only serious drawback for ati's radeon chipset is the lack of tweakers/drivers like nvidia's. The speed difference is not all that great, and that embm... well let's just say I was considering buying matrox g400 beacuse of it. And although I ended up getting my gf1 ddr, it doesn't mean I wouldn't want to see embm working on my system one day <IMG SRC="smileys/biggrin.gif">

The visual quality of the Radeon 32 outperforms the 32MB Geforce GTS and below as does the 64MB Radeon. However I bought the eVGA Geforce 2 MX because first of all I got it for 89.99, second of all I want the framerates, and third the visual quality is good enough for me (I've been on a Voodoo 2 for the past 2 yrs!!!). But for you guys that want visuals over speed, Radeon is the answer!

Y2A said it<br>
<br>
Speed- Geforce2<br>
Visual Quality- Radeon<br>
<br>
but Id rather get a Geforce right now because the features of the radeon havent been used yet and hardware is so far past the software its sickenening... I wish they would make a game that would REALLY push a high-end system and use those nice new features that we wanna see... ARRRRRG
