A HD 5850 is enough to power any game nowadays on highest settings anyways.
What's the point.

does a workstation model ring a bell?
a gaming gpu doesn't need to do full blown ray tracing, it's built around the fundamental concept of rasterization.

It's closer to fact at the moment than it has been in the past because ATI has a much bigger lead right now than NVidia ever had over ATI (as far as I know).

change the search type, the search is skewed because the card on the top of the list has 900+ reviews.
ati has more up there at the lowest price point
ati has more up there at the higher price point
ati has more up there at best match

Now the top 7 are ATI. I think those are the best sellers for the day.

For me, in terms of drivers, NVidia has always been the one for me. Support is simply awesome for NVidia cards. ATI on the other hand... not so much.
When it comes to performance, I have no complaints whatsoever about my NVidia GTX 295. Works, rain or shine. And when it has been priced down, I'll just put in another for maximum performance.
