After a long time of being in the nvidia camp, I have decided to come back to the Radeon family. I was sick of my eco-9800gt (128bit EW).
Been having trouble installing Catalyst though. I first installed the card and tried to install Catalyst and it would get 1/4 of the way done and the screen went black forever. The HDD light was on for at least 25 minutes and then it just stopped.
Going to try again with the beta driver. I also didn't have the Nvidia drivers cleared off yet (doh!) when I tried the first time. They are now off and I will report back soon.
