Well that survey was done on gamers. And it's a fact that Nvidia has most of the video card market share and most poeple that buy Nvidia cards since most poeple are buying mainstream cards don't actually come to read charlie's web site.

You asked about ATI driver issues and I gave you some sources.

Crashes, artifacts etc... overclocking that does. A bad card does that, a totally unstable system does that. Nice that you blamed the card though. And as bad as Nvidia drivers can be they have never been as bad as ATI cards. I should know I had so many issues with my 9800 Pro. And it's well known that ATI cards take a long time to get the performance they should be getting. But if you call that good driver support then that's your opinion.

Not only did you agree to the horrible drivers on the nvidia side, you also managed to blame everything but not the card. Don't know about you, but I strive to reach a stable overclock, that means hours of stress testing, before I use the rig 24/7 and yes it was a drivers fault.

If you're referring to my post, I wasn't yelling at either of yah. However you're probably not...but I agree, in the end the market will speak. Have fun.

On Topic: I'm really looking forward to these cards...however thats pretty much only because I want to fold on one. Otherwise I think a 587[5]0 would be perfectly suitable for anything I might need.

Is Nvidia a new religion or something?

Again... It's census, not 'sensis'.

Is it just me, or do we need to take a good look at revamping the education system?

No worries, I didn't think you were attacking me or anything. It was an unrelated post. Although it did put the whole thing into perspective.
