    Dunno haven't used NVidia for awhile now had no lucj getting any type of performance i was pleased with when I have them hooked to my Sony 45inch screen ATi worked better for me and the image quality was noticeably better. Theres a few people I know over here on a local forum that have the 24in dells and swear by them, they cost $1099 over here in Western Australia, I have a 22inch Viewsonic i picked up new for $AU380 at christmas time on my desk that suits me fine, might pick up a second in a few months, i LOVE the 16:10 aspect and for the price IMO are excellent value.

    Seems like NVidia is always a bit cheaper. I cannot imagine the thermal output on the upcoming ATI card. This 8800GTS was plenty hot for me so I watered it right away knowing summer might fry it. I wanted enough stuff to play UT3 with Vista DX10, uh, IF it shows up in fall. I figure they got so much dough coming in from Gears of War they really give a flying coitus about the cross platform thing.
