Is that the card that came with the special version of Giants: Citizen Kabuto? If so, is there a major difference in performance?

The image quality thing and DVD playback isn't up to NVIDIA at all really. Because ATI produce their own chipsets and cards, they end up choosing high quality stuff.

Because NVIDIA licenses their chipsets out to other companies, the third party companies will hold back on spending more on better RAMDACs and physical connectors, which make a huge difference in image quality.

That said, it is possible to find companies who do splash out on better components for NVIDIA based cards, and it really does show (Leadtek being one).<span id='postcolor'>

Yuck Leadtek?confused.gifconfused.gifconfused.gif? I'd take Hercules, Asus, or a gainward before I bought another Leadek piece of crap. They are instable, they don't OC at all, and the image quality is standard. I tried to move the core up 5MHz, and bam PC crashes everytime. Can't move the memory up at all either.
