Okay. There is big thing going. In my country Ati is winning selling. And nvidias productions are really bad by the way. They break every month. My friend have that video card of nvidia and he have to take it to repair every month. And my school is ati fanis also. So ati is best of videocards. But it was not that ten years a go.
So. Why nvidia breaks itself? And when he fights back? Matricks is also good videocard. But expensive. But is matricks really good. Because im going to buy that? Or keep with ati?
Do you know this things?
What do you think. ATI, Nvidia or matricks?

... Im sorry could you reword this? I cant seem to read it from one end to the other without drooling.
EDIT:
After looking at this for a while...
It looks like:
I need a new Vid. Card, Should I get a Ati which is the most popular,
Should I get Nvidia, which breaks easily and needs to be repaired, but is cheap.
Or Matricks, which is good but expensive.
Ati might be your best bet, but if you can afford it go for Matricks...
Unless I'm looking at this completely wrong.

Never heard of "matricks," and I've exclusively used EVGA nVidia cards for years now, and not once had a problem with any of them. Of course, I when I started building my own computers, ATI cards were more likely to overheat than nVidia cards, and while that's not necessarily the case anymore, every time it comes time to buy a new card, nVidias always seem to be the better performing cards in my price range.
If he's going through a new card every month, either the manufacturer has horrible QC, he's improperly overclocking it, or his system is doing something to kill it, and ATIs would probably end up the same way.
Edit: ASUS Matrix is what he means. Still hadn't heard of it, but ASUS makes quality PC components.

The difference in performance will likely be nearly unnoticeable, so if they're the same price just pick the one that you're more confident will last longer -- either one could break tomorrow, or never.
Alternatively, you could pick the one that comes with cooler stickers, or has a cooler looking fan.

Okay. But my question is: why nvidia breaks much? Is not they ware that it makes breaking easy?
Because so ati is my go.

This. My last three cards have been nVidias that I've used for three years each at which point they became outdated. They all still work, I sold them to my friends who are still using them.

I'm actually going to get a nVidia card today (to replace a crappy Intel g33 chip), and most reviews I've read have been positive.

Well sometimes there will be the unfortunate case where you got a "lemon" and thats usually 1 out of a few hundred or even a few thousand. But the way minad is describing it makes it almost seem like he is just really over exaggerating, or the product in question might not really be nvidia? Or whatever country he is from people just do not know how to install gfx cards. 5 years ago I bought a asus power supply and I kid you not within 3mths IT CAUGHT ON FIRE inside the case lol and asus is known for top of the line products generally.

If youre buying a actual new nvidia card, you wont have anything to worry about as long as you leave it alone and let it do what it does..
