I think there are more people waiting for Feb/March to roll in, so they can see how much the 9700pro is selling for by then. Also, people are waiting for official benchmarks, to see if the NV30 is worth the extra dough.
i own a geforce ti4600 and a radeon 9700 pro... i want to get the AIW version of the 9700 but im waiting to see if the geforce fx lives up to its hype (them i might get that) =D
I have no loyalty to any one company. I will buy whatever product has the features I want, performs the way I want, and will fit within the budget I have to work.
I gave up even waiting for a future review date to come out let alone when the nv30 will be on the shelves.
I cant believe not one large reviewer can get their hands on this card. I think Nvidia is hidding something.;)
Price vs. Performance - whichever company has it when I buy my next card will get my money. I care not who.
I may upgrade with the release of Xabre II. There's no option for this. I have a 9700 Pro right now, nVidia cards are nice but they never burn-in any. You can always burn-in ATi cards which is what I like.

Though I won't be buying new hardware anytime soon.
For some reason it seems strange to me to purchase an ATI, but I think that is because nVidia has been on top for so long. Got my eye on the 9500 Pro, but can wait until Jan to see if prices drop a bit. Dont think I can hold out for NV to show up...

Bingo! That's my response in a nutshell!
Same here, when i'm ready to buy I will buy the one that offers the most for what I want to spend.Quote:

I'm sorry, but I'll never go back to ATi, I've thought of the Radeon 9700 pro and 9700 a few times, heck, for a while, but my last Radeon I had, I disliked very much. It was the Radeon VE, and yes, I know it is now out dated, but my move to the nvidia line was my best choice I've ever made. Not that I hate ATi, there products are good, but don't give me what I want. I don't need to edit video, I just wanna play games with stability, and what not. I've heard that ATi has picked up on that too, but I'm not gonna risk it, and I also think I'm very comfortable with nvidia, and I also think that the wait will be worth it.
That's just my opinion though. Also, not many people wanna pay $599 for the nvidia GeForce FX 5800 ULTRA
I voted Nvidia till the end... or atleast until NVs new vid card really sux, or ATI can provide something way way better for less.
