John Carmack (UR FUCKING GOD) said that ATI is currently ahead of nvidia. This is because of the time nvidia spent working on the chip for X-Box.

However, he also mentioned that nvidia is still better with their drivers. But in terms of power, the ATI card is better.

Interesting note: id has been running its more recent demonstrations using the ATI Radeon 9500. Take that for what it is.

9700 is better right now. But if your current card is good enough i would hold out for the next nvidia card come christmas time. It's sure to please :)
