    I don't understand why everyone has their panties in a bunch. Everyone can make their own educated decision, I don't know how their is such a strong divide between fanboys. Isn't everyone just looking for the same thing performance? This forum is really taking a turn for the worse with red on green hate and vise versa. Never in the past 6 years of being a member here have I seen this to such an extent

    Over the years I've had, and still have Red and Green cards,[my GTX275's are red in color] I like them both, glad both company's compete against one another.
    More and more each company has differing strengths and weaknesses, and this is bad for us how?

    And I totally don't get the Fanboi mentality, pretty freaking juvenile really. I like what I like, that does not mean everything else sucks. Especially to others, with different needs/opinions.

    My GOD! There are now two ofusthat think this way..or is it that many do but the ones that don't are just a little more vocal in their attempts to shout down anyone that disagrees with them?

    My attitude is : Buy what you want, it's your money.
    Both companies make excellent products.

    im on this train as well..
    i get what fits my needs..i build computers for friends and when i do im never loyal to a brand..i buy what will fit them best
    and will continue being this way since both companies do make good products..and BOTH have or will have driver issues here n there

    just bought a nvidia card and had it literally a single day and updated the driver and has a problem with SC2 flashing..

    im not mad at nvidia nor do i think they make inferior products..cause ive had ati driver issues before as well

    things like this happen for either company
