I'm trying to determine whether it would make a difference to me (a user of a PJ only capable of 480p) if I go with a ATI 9800 Pro or an NVidia 6600 using TT 2.0, will I see any difference in PQ? I'm asking because most users of TT 2.0 & 6600 Nvidia are HD users. Not SD like myself. Any help would be appreciated...

unless you plan building a new computer the 6600 is not an option, as at this time is only available for pci express. if you are the 6600 would be a better choice in my opinion. although i read some good stuff about the ati x700? somewhere recently, but dont think its out yet

the 9800 is only available for agp

(For 480p output,) I can't imagine you'll see a difference, and certainly not a difference worth $50, let alone $100...

Thank you. This is the first direct and honest answer I got on the subject, but of course, I would like a 2nd opinion. Anybody else?

I'm using a Radeon 9800pro & TT 2.0 looks great, best DVD image I've seen and HD file playback is the same picture quality as my HD TIVO. I have no plans, nor do I feel compelled, to change to an nvidia card.
