    I have used both and by far the ATI has given me the best looking graphics on my screen no matter what I am doing. Plus it has given me the less problems. I prefer ati over nvidia.

    I've had somer issues with both. For one, I ended up reformatting my system drive to get my ATI series card to properly work (this was switching from nvidia, not sure if I should blame nvidia or ATI.) and for a while I had to use old ati drivers to multibox properly.

    But nvidia locking out ATI users from running ati cards with a nvidia card just for physx was just stupid. And I never really jumped onto the physx bandwagon.

    Good thing you didn't, that bandwagon ride was bumpy and left me where I began except with a lighter wallet and a sense of being robbed!

    I have tried to stick with one brand, but it never works, I have been an ATI fanboy and then an NVidia fanboy and then back to ATI, but the simple truth is they both rock, and there can only be one chamption at a time, and at the momment, that is ATI, you just can't beat the bang for buck, and eyefinity is something I ahve been waiting for for year which was the icing on the 5xxx series cake!

    Multi-display gaming has been around for a while, whether you used a TripleHead2Go or SoftTripleHead.

    Correct, and I used SoftTH, however my issue was there was no video cards that supported multi screen 3d gaming in fullscreen by default, and the Matrox cards (Which I have 2 of) are severly limited, it is almost pointless using them on anything bigger than 22" monitors as the supported resolution isn't too nice.

    My other issue was that I wanted to use my three 24" or 27" monitors in landscape orientation, however previously you would have to rotate the screens through 3rd party programs, and both NVidia and ATI had clearly stated that 3D modes were not designed to run in a landscape orientation so FPS was terrible.
