Anyway here r my preferences for now.

2.SAPPHIRE 100186L Radeon X1950XT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 VIVO HDCP -210 USD
2. XFX PVT71PUDP3 GeForce 7950GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 EXTREME - 220 USD
3. XFX PVT71PUDP3 GeForce 7900GS 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 EXTREME - 175 USD
XFX do only nVidia GeForce ,HIS & Sapphire do only ATI Radeon & they master them.
There r no issues with the XFX nVidia cards.
Many luv the 7900 GS as its economical and can be OCed into a much extent.
HIS radeon X1950XT is a superb card with great great cooling(temp <50 C always!!absolutely quiet)but it has a issue that its fan get damaged coz it tends to rub of the cover.So many had RMAed the card.Performance,OCing and cooling is exceptional.
Sapphire one has a great sounds like a plane turbine when running high.Gr8 performance for money.
ATI drivers hav sucked in Vista and in some others.works fine in XP
I cant afford more than 200 USD so the best one comes under that limit is mine!!
