[ale] video card recommendation?

I am able to. I have both at 64MB. So far, I have found an article that says 
the ATI is better (insofar as being faster at rendering).

I have seen my NVidia show (and not show) the reflective pool in Descent3. At 
the end of level one (in the center of the room in the building) there is a 
pool that you can see yourself in if you look down. I will journey to this 
pool with the ATI card and try to "reflect."

Note:  I have seen little or no difference running my 64MB and 32MB Nvidia 
cards on Unreal, UT Tournament, and Descent3 - but I never went to the pool 
with the 32MB card or run benchmarks with the same hardware. Still, the 
person who sits in front of the 32MB card (on my LAN) will not be at a 
distinct disadvantage.
