Which Video Card(s) Should I get?
So I am wondering which would be better:
Dual ATI Radeon HD 4890 - 1GB or One NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 - 1792MB |

GeForce GTX 295, because I like NVIDIA and you should too.

So since the ATI is dual it will bring me more video power?
but The Nivida is a single card, but has some power to it and is more reliable? |

So if I have 8 GB of RAM and get the Nvidia, how high of graphics do you think Crysis will run.

I have a 260 and can run Crysis on Very High at 1680x1050 with 4xAA, I think you'll be good.
