Well before I received either of these two cards, I had expected the match-up to be quite even, similar to the match-up we saw this past winter. As our test results have shown, though, that's not the case. NVIDIA's card came out on top in almost every-single one of the tests throughout the six games in our suite. Some of these do carry NVIDIA's badge on the box, but not all. ATI's name isn't on any, as it's become increasingly difficult to find a game with one. NVIDIA has been far more proactive in their marketing this way, and given that so many games seem to favor their cards lately, they're no doubt offering more than just their logo for some box art. From almost all perspectives, NVIDIA's card is the clear winner. It proved faster in the vast majority of our tests, and also managed to deliver a more impressive top overclock. Normally, I'd blame ATI's Overdrive utility for not allowing us to reach sky-high clocks, but that's not the case here. While that utility allowed us to hit 1000MHz, our max stable Core clock proved to be 975MHz. If only both manufacturers offered voltage tweaking... then we may see some entirely different results.
