bigboi86Uh no.... AMD's were less expensive, cooler, and had great quality control. My old Athlon XP-M spanked the shit out of any P4 there was, for $50.

agree.

i dont find anything wrong with their drivers

For a while there, my statement was true (I've been using AMD since 98), I did not say it has always been, as AMD got bigger this slowly changed.

I've always found Nvidia drivers to be more friendly, a simple but nice example is with multiple screens. Nvidia you just open up tell it what background you want on what screen our how you want it panelled, stretched, etc. With ATI there is no such feature (if I am wrong please show me, I can't find it on my laptop), at least that anyone has been able to find for me even with Omega drivers. Lots of little tweaks and game play things that Nvidia adds to make life easier.


{EDIT}I haven't argued the price or speed points of the AMD's its the only way they initially got market share{/EDIT}

Ditto. My XP-M 2500+ @ 2.5GHz slapped a P4 about like a baby.
