I'm just not even going to bother evaluating the composite output on both cards.

On the s-video side, the main difference that I see is color saturation. The Geforce was slightly better in my opinion. This however, can be compensated on the ATI card by adjusting the television color controls. The red ghost (please excuse my ignorance - I don't recall which 'inky' he is) on the Geforce screen shot is bleeding (possibly due to oversaturation). Right click on the image - save picture as - then magnify in a graphics program to get a better view of the other differences.

I'm still partial to the ATI card because is just seems better suited for TV-out. For one thing, the card came equipped with TV-out. The Geforce required an add-on card to make it functional. Another ATI advantage is that the game is well centered on the screen without having to modify any parameters. Notice also that the geforce card cut off the top of the game where the high score is located.

My geforce outplays the ATI on 3-D games - no contest. But I think overall that the ATI is a better choice all around because of its slightly superior TV-out.

This is of course just my opinion.

Keith
