i owned ati and nvidia cards and i had more problems with my last nvidiacard then to my aticards before.
a good friend is a hardcore hardware freak and he tested much more then many magazines.
he got now the ati 4750 and is very happy now about it. for this price you got enough power for all games in big resolutions. btw. he is using a tripplehead2go and got no problems with qualitysettings. and he pushed his old 3850 to 1 ghz on the gpu he was still able to play games with it

i dont have any problems with my 8800gt because i can run all games at max settings in 1280x1024 without any problems. But i had some problems with my old 8600/ 7900 cards. And yes my friend has the 9550 agp version and he can not run almost any game. I have the GAINWARD 8800GT 512MB GOLDEN SAMPLE version 670mhz core and 1800 mhz memory. I can not overclock it becuase my comptuter is getting very hot in the summer and sometimes it shutdowns even with no overclock.
