A very comprehensive comare of Nvidia and ATI video accelration feature.
this is very important if you use your card for playing movies\DVD\TV .
as it looks ATI has the upper hand of that battle
Clearly, ATI offers better video support in their latest graphics cards than Nvidia does. They dominate the HQV benchmark tests, offer much lower CPU utilization for DVD playback, and offer solutions for acceleration H.264 and DivX (though one requires a specific codec and the other a specific player). In really tough video scenarios, like those with odd cadence patterns or noisy DVDs, ATI delivers better quality. Their de-interlacing algorithms seem just a little bit better, too.
very detailed information in the article.
