What are your reasons for your choice of red or green?
This discussion is always dependent on the current situation for both brands.
I'm not a fanboy. I pick the cards by analyzing the performance vs price ratio, not by brands. In my opinion thats how it should be.
Right now ATI offers a better price vs performance in my opinion. And it was the HD2000, HD3000 and HD4000 series that dragged the market into a better competitive atmosphere, and we all should be happy about it because I remember when an Nvidia 8800 Ultra used to cost €800 not that long ago! And thank god that now Nividia changed the prices of their high-end products to a more affordable and fair price and they don't have the monopoly anymore.
Having a decent competition is always better for us, consumers. They lower the prices and the products get better twice as faster.
Concerning physx and dx11... I don't really care for now. Maybe later.
In conclusion: For me its not about red or green. Its about the product itself. I pick the one I consider to be the better choice based on specs, prices and performance, not brands.
