Guess somebody does not realize that Maximum PC used a FX series card in their dream machine this year. The reason being it had greater O/C capability than did the ATI. So pay off, I guess. Nvidia supplied a more "dark sided" card.
Where does the 9700 outperform? hmm. Do you really want me to talk about the first debut of the FX series. It takes up two slots, has a fan big enough to slave start a jumbo 767, and actually ran slower than the GF4 series it was supposed to replace. That's about all any of us can remember either.
You know, I do like it when nvidia takes the lead. That just means ATI has to work harder. But, with both we all end up with better products. Just think, without ATI you would still be running a TNT series card. Without nvidia I could still be running a Rage 128 series card. Hmm, yeap, nvidia has it good points.

PS; last time I was at Tom's there was a nvidia add with a maximum pc logo with it. Talk about pay outs!
