I'll be piecing together my new computer shortly and just wanted 4chan's opinion on this. Who is at the top of their game right now as far as video cards, ATI or nVidia?

well, if you want the best there is only one choice: nvidia sli with two 7900gtx (there are that sli-cards too, but good luck finding them). if you don't want to pay your balls off you should get a nvidia 7600gt, or a 7900gt.

get the 7950 GX2 lol. At least it'll future proof your system when nVIDIA gives their blessing for DIY market
ftw. if people dont take your advice, they should stab flash drives into their eyeballs.

For raw performance, Nvidia is at the top. Too bad they STILL can't do HDR+AA last I checked though.
Also, nVidia drivers lately have had an affinity for breaking things that used to work fine. =(

I hear there's good 3rd party drivers available for ATi. At least you have an alternative. With nVidia, you are stuck with their shitty, game breaking drivers.
I haven't owned an ATi since the 9600 but I had no complaints about the driver besides a crappy UI.
