Was quite happy reading the speed boosts for the 5850 cards, that is until I read about the fix drivers for the 6000 range.

How to install an AMD/ATI graphics card If that don't work, try ... How to install ATI drivers





I know I go on about it, but come on, this is actually getting rather stupid from AMD ... nearly as bad as Adobe, err, nearly.

Did you know that with the release of the Nvidia 580 Series you can pick up a hot, noisy, power slurping 460 card for around £120.00 now?

Would suit me and be a good improvement on my 9800GTX methinks.

Whenever I think about buying a new video card I am tempted to go over to the dark side but these driver shenanigans always seem to confirm I've made the right choice sticking with Nvidia

But I have to say it's a close call, ATI are at their best for years just lately.
