I don't care about prices i look at it like this
ATI-datsun (cheap, you don't know what your buying and how long it goin to last)
NVIDIA-BMW (cost abit more made to last )

Um, 9600GT, hundreds of pages of people saying their card crashes to black screen when playing games. No fix from Nvidia or its partners that I've been able to find yet. If you know of one please tell me. I've changed drivers, done complete clean install of windows etc.

This card has a flaw in it's design or manufacture, probably design flaw though as it doesn't matter which partner you buy the card from they all experience the same error.

To simply and catagorically make a statement like the one quoted is silly. It gets up my goat because I'm wearing the cost for this design flaw while someone blindly makes that statement.

There, I'll hop off my soap box and sorry for the thread high jack. Thanks to the op for the comparisom.
