I am stuck on deciding between buying an ati 4870 or a 9800 gx2. I am basing this
on one posssibly using the hdmi capabilty. Which card would you recommend?
 
Are you thinking of hooking this up to a HDTV? You can also get HDMI on the HD4870 via DVI to HDMI adaptor that is included when you purchase the card.
 
ATI has Avivo technology which makes movies look a bit better and more detailed. Therefor if you are hooking it up to a TV want are die-hard about the picture quality, the ATI would be the best way to go. Nvidia's video technology makes the picture look a bit darker and less defined. Overall it all depends on how you want to use it.
 
i was thinking of hooking to an lcd tv. I wanted an idea which would produce the best screen image. I do believe you gave me the answer i am looking for. Thank you.
