if you do *not* plan to move to vista in the next two years, your choice clearly should go to the Nv 7600 ## on XP (only)## it way outperforms the X1650, even as XT.

if, however, you think about upgrading to vista once it matured some (give or take half a year), then your choice should go to the x1650;

the ATI X1000 serie support basic DirectX 10 features (which will be the only Dx available in vista) whereas Nvidia cards ('xcept for the 8800) do not.

I overclcok the P4 to 3.2. I just sold my 9800 pro also. I just bought the 1650 on ebay for 79 plus 20 dollar rebate for a total of 59.

See Link. Seems to me that neither is best in the %26lt;锟?0 range. I prefer ATI cards myself but these new X cards seem to suck quite a bit. Nvidia all the way on that one but if your thinking up to 锟?0 check out the second link.
