Introduction

Trying to keep track of whether nVidia or ATI/AMD has the fastest video card is about the same as "asking what day is it?"  From one day to the next that title can change hands from one company to the other in a matter of hours.  Looking back at the path that has gotten ATI/AMD to where their today has not always been smooth sailing, but when they released the first of their X2 series of cards thing began to look up for them.  The card we are looking at today very well maybe the last of the 4800 series of cards to appear since we are already seeing and waiting on the 5700 series cards to make their grand appearance
