If you can hold on for 1-3 months more then you might get the X850, ATi's new babe. it is, now hold tight babe, 3-5% stronger than the X800 (whoohaaa).
Or you wait for Q3-Q4 for the first ATi 512MB GCs (some say it's just a X850 with more RAM).
As for now....if you can affort 2 68 ultra then get that. Otherwise i would recommend the ATi anytime over NVidea. Oh yeah, lotsa folk missunderstood the 2 CG card thingy. it gives you only more power if you use applications that supports SLI (I think that's what it's called, the dual card thingy). You have two 256MB card but still have only the speed of 1x256. Why they didn't add it up so you could have 512MB(that's what both card should give you) I dunno...NVidea....probably gonna bring out 68 Ultra Extreme or something where the RAM will be simultaneous calculated as 512.
