You're right I didn't that in a negative manner; I'm sorry if you took it that way

too many damn people have been changing their damn usernames. it says youve only registered this month. sorry if youre not a boy, but regardless, you cant just jump right in and say ATi is the best, and just expect people to be like

"oh.. they are? damn how could i have been so blind!?! youre a genius! i'm buying all ATi cards from now on"

because the world's a shitty place because of those that that live in it.

so, just leave the forum lowlifes alone and go about your own business

Hi Sapa

. Maybe i am right or might not but i think that small flames keep a forum alive ,....without stuff like this the forum will be reduced to "This is the best videocard" or "this is the best monitor" and "look here to find out the best drivers" .
Each person defend his "buy" and the money that he invested ,....i mean this is the same like if we talk about dogs .
I hawe a Rotweiller and i if somebody will say that his dog is better than my dog i will decimate za guy

No probs sapasion

imsostupid says im registered in january2001, a year before, but i am long here in sharky's from the days the forum was in delphi's.

Actually you misunderstood my post. I didn't write anywhere: "ATi has the best card". I compared the 2 cards, without giving a summary for the GF3Ti500 ( i only spoke about the 8500). This is not meant as a clear comparison. maybe was a post towards the radeon8500. And i wrote it in order to see the reactions. Because I carefully wrote the post in a way that somebody would find it difficult to dismiss it. Don't you agree?

IMO, ATi's Radeon8500 is the best card so far. From this aspect, i wrote that nvidia lost its throne. I can't find true reasons why should i prefer a GF3Ti500. Of course, anyone's opinion is respectful, cause maybe has some other facts i ignore or my facts are not proves from his point of view.

Goodbye blue nvidia. Taken from Pink Floyd's : Goodbye blue sky. the emoticon

shows it.

You know you're right that intense debates are the life blood of this place. I just hate when guys get personal; otherwise keep at it

There's one thing I like about Radeon 8500 though I'm married - it's that tatooed chick in all ATi ads appearing in Wired and other cool magazines

Seriously though, I think I might walk over to Best Buy this weekend and get me one of them R8500 cards and test it out in the REAL grown up kind of a game: MS FS 2002 or Combat FS2. That should end these discussions once and for all (yeah, right...) since my ti500 is working hard to push 50 FPS at high settings

Otherwise, some ATI fanboy will get a good deal on an open item!
