This week I plan to purchase a new new HIS HD3850 IceQ AGP video card. The Radeon HD3850 line is currently touted as the fastest AGP card available.
However, I have reservations. ATI video drivers are notoriously quirky. I have read that the VIA K8T800P + VT8237 chipset (provided on my Abit AV8 mobo) may be the cause of some of this quirkyness. If any of you with a Radeon HD3850 card had issues with performance and drivers please reply. I'd like to get the pro's and con's sorted out before I drop $200+ on this puppy. Would I be better off with NVidia card?
