Agreed Neil!

I never had many problems with ATI on the gaming side either. Also their prices cant be beat. For gaming, either one is great when paired with their perspective companion CPU's, (ATI/AMD-Nvidia/Intel)

What got me, is their response to their business practices and the correspondence with regards to the driver issues and other compatibility issues. Once they know that you have bought their product then that is it. Its kinda like, "you just got played, thanks for playing!" On the gaming side we all expect to go through a new GPU about every year and half. When you get a pro-card too actually make those games, you don't expect it to be incapable of running the current standard shader three months after you buy it? then have the company respond with "Thank you, come again!"

I know that Nvida really relies on the interaction with the pro-GPU market, which translates down to the gaming cards and truly understand that correlation. Kinda like how tech development on a Formula one car translated down to the consumer market, so keep your drivers happy and interact with any problems they encounter.

On many of my last posts, I have shown you guys what their responses were to some of the issues I faced within the viewports. Not much has changed since then. I feel since AMD took over ATI, they are now all aboot the flashy presentation rather than the customer and making the best product they can and standing behind that. This card is actually really good at playing games but as a workstation card, I have not noticed much difference. When they try to tout the capabilities of the workstation cards, all I see is scenes that are setup to look flashy and not High-poly HDR mapped real world uses being presented?

So yeah for gamers it is better to save a few bucks, so you can buy a new one next year. Everyone knows that my next card is going to be an Nvidia Quadro. I just thought it was funny to poke fun at their little tagline, "to learn and better understand!" The irony was to much to resist :P
