Well without making this another WoW vs. GW thread with vidcards as the raging subject I bet I can make you madder and frankly, I want a turn! [img]tongue.gif[/img] (I mean we all know GW is basically a WoW-clone without jumping abilities).
As far as ATI goes they suck -'nuff said. Poor ATI couldn't even make their own drivers 'till two years ago. They still to this day ask modders from the gaming communities to make new ones and then charge people for 'em. And don't tell me you swallowed the 'stunning' reviews in PC magazine who are coincidentally paid large sums of money by ATI to advertise their products usually on the reverse of the very first page? You did? Oh.
I have to agree that ATI makes a friendlier product. If by friendly you mean refusal to co-operate. Or tendency to burn your system into pieces. Or a tendency to not recreate fog and bloom effects. Yeah, it's friendly in that respect.
I suggest you take that piece of shiny plastic from your board and do what I did: Use the card to power your new Nvidia and use the fan to keep that baby cool as it puts to shame it's significantly lesser and somewhat slow cousin, the ATI.
How'd I do?
