yeah i'd say ATIs or Nvidias. most computers today have the videocard built into the motherboard but if you get a videocard and put it in,it automatically switches.

Um, ATI and Nvidia are the only two consumer graphics card makers, what else are you going to choose if you get a graphics card? Who else are you going to buy from? 3Dlabs? Matrox? How many people have even heard of these two other companies? Very few, I'll tell you that. |

Voodoo was popular a few years ago, and my old computer has an s3 card in it. And the KRYO-II! http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/kyro2.php I have a videocard named after me! ((YES I KNOW KRYO IS A TYPO! BUT IT'S COOL ANYWAY!)) |

S3 is basically dead, I haven't seen any voodoo cards in a while and I've never heard of kryo though they probably aren't a huge consumer graphics card company. And the fact that that article is from 2001, well, it doesn't seem like it has really grown at all, so basically it's still ATI and Nvidia dominating the market. Anyways, you need to give us your price range since just "the best card" is a bit broad to be working with. |
