    Intel & nVidia. Is AMD & ATI (really AMD) really a viable choice? I got burned a long time ago by AMD, since then it has been Intel and nVidia all through the years (even though they are pricier)
    I also had a bad experience years ago. Key words being years ago. I went back to AMD because they pulled a major turn around and have in my eyes far surpassed Intel in performance, price, and customer care.

    This is from experience over several years. I have seen a lot of products from both companies and have went back and fourth over the years finally ending up with AMD.

    Could I go back to Intel? Not until the prices are drastically reduced the performance comes up and the customer care gets an overhaul.

    Running 790gx AM3 with Phenom II 955 and Sapphire HD4890 1Gb and get amazing performance. I chose AMD over intel becausce phenom II's offer better performance in games than the core i7's and gaming is pretty much the only intensive apps I do on my PC. So got a Dragon platform and very happy with it
