if you want the most FPS on a tight budget then AMD's the way to go I think.

PLUS! You can't be called Nvidiot.

I think that's what's called a watertight argument.

I've been busting to remember what the ATI equivalent was, but it's not happening.

Perhaps it was ATidiot but that's not nearly as good.

I'd be intrigued to see a few. The drivers argument has been around for nearly 15 years, yet for me I've had no real problems with playing any games with either an Nvidia card or an AMD/ATI card. Skyrim also ran fine when I installed it just after release day (so long before any driver issues could be patched).

The only experiences I've had so far is that I've never had an AMD/ATI card die on me due to shitty engineering, whereas I've lost a £260 GeForce 8800 due to that (which is kind-of annoying).

Still, my current card is now a couple of years old and maybe others are having problems with newer games. Just nothing I've personally come across so far it must be said.

I think I have a 7850. I definitely had stuttering in Skyrim and I think I posted something about it on here back in the day. I think a patch or new driver helped things but I don't remember it going away completely. Not sure if that was an AMD thing or not.

Can't sat I've noticed any stuttering in anything else, though I don't really play many games. Last one was Deus Ex and that played smoothly.
