NVIDIA
dan ATI/AMD merupakan 2 pemain besar dalam pasar kartu grafis untuk komputer.
Untuk Anda yang ingin membeli komputer,
dan sampai pada poin pemilihan kartu grafis (VGA), harus menghadapi pilihan
yang sulit, pilih NVIDIA atau AMD? Problem ini juga saya hadapi ketika saya
membeli laptop. Laptop yang dilengkapi NVIDIA atau AMD? Untuk membantu memilih
VGA, saya mencoba mengumpulkan informasi dari berbagai sumber untuk Anda. Sebagai
catatan, di sini saya membandingkan jenis VGA terbaru dari kedua merek
tersebut, yaitu NVIDIA GTX 590 dan ATI HD 6990.
Secara teknis
Sebenarnya
secara teknis, NVIDIA maupun ATI memiliki kelebihan dan kekurangan dalam
sistemnya (lih. tabel
spesification). Menurut sumber lainnya, NVIDIA dikatakan memiliki
komponen-komponen yang “kalah” dari ATI. Pada beberapa tes benchmark, ATI
menunjukkan hasil yang lebih baik.
Single monitor dan multiple monitor
Pada
game Crysis, untuk resolusi yang sama, yaitu 1920 x 1080, dan dengan setting
kualitas grafis tertinggi dengan 8x anti-alias, NVIDIA menghasilkan 60
fps, lebih rendah 3 fps dibanding ATI. Hal serupa terjadi juga pada game Just
Cause 2. NVIDA 90 fps, sedangkan ATI 96 fps.
Namun
ternyata ketika memainkan Crysis dengan setting 3 monitor dan setting grafis
tertinggi, NVIDIA menghasilkan 32 fps, sedangkan ATI lebih rendah 2 fps. Dan
jika ditambah setting 8x anti-alias, NVIDIA menghasilkan 23 fps, sedangkan ATI
lebih rendah 10 fps (13 fps).
Suara bising
Untuk
masalah suara bising. Pada saat memainkan STALKER, dengan setting grafis
tinggi, GTX 590 menghasilkan kinerja yang lebih “diam” dibanding HD 6990. Tentunya
semua orang pasti tidak mau memiliki komputer bersuara seperti diesel bukan? Namun tenang saja, dengan suara yang
lebih “diam” ini, bukan berarti mengurangi performa GTX 590.
Harga
Harga NVIDIA lebih mahal dibanding
ATI. Harga yang lebih mahal ini bisa saja dapat menyebabkan GTX 590
tidak banyak beredar di pasaran. Belum lagi, ketika masuk ke Indonesia,
tentunya harga tersebut akan makin mahal terkait adanya pajak.
Isu lainnya
Setelah
membaca berbagai sumber, saya mendapatkan sebuah berita miring tentang NVIDIA. Berita ini
menggunakan tes game-game yang relatif sudah lama, dan VGA dari kedua merek
pun, bukan keluaran terbaru. Namun tidak ada salahnya Anda membaca artikel
tersebut, mungkin dapat menambah bahan pertimbangan Anda dalam memilih VGA.
Referensi lain
Sebagai
referensi, mungkin ada baiknya Anda juga membaca beberapa situs berikut ini
(dalam bahasa Inggris).

Di sini dijelaskan profil NVIDIA dan ATI secara singkat
§ Passmark –
Di sini Anda dapat melihat grafik perbandingan semua merek VGA yang ada. Mulai
dari high end, mid range, sampai low end, beserta grafik-grafik perbandingan
lainnya.
§ Tom’s Hardware – Anda bisa melihat review-review
mendetail di sini
§ New Egg – Sebenarnya ini merupakan tempat
membeli hardware komputer secara online. Namun di sini Anda dapat juga melihat
berbagai review dari orang-orang yang sudah menggunakan hardware-hardware
tertentu.
Kesimpulan
Untuk
harga, ATI lebih murah dibanding NVIDIA. Jika Anda bukan benar-benar seorang
penikmat game dengan kualitas grafis super yang suka bermain di multiple
monitor, pilihan ATI merupakan hal yang tepat. ATI lebih sudah cukup bagus
untuk game-game berat yang hanya akan Anda mainkan di single monitor.
Lain
halnya jika Anda seorang penikmat game-game dengan grafis super dan
memainkannya di multiple monitor. Atau jika Anda seorang desainer profesional
yang menggunakan multiple monitor. Jika demikian, pilihlah NVIDIA.
Jadi,
sebenarnya, semuanya tergantung pada fungsi komputer Anda. Pilihlah komputer
dengan teliti, untuk apa fungsinya bagi Anda, serta hal lainnya. Dan tak kalah
penting, perhatikan dana yang Anda miliki. Jangan terlalu memaksakan membeli
VGA mahal.
Catatan lain
Jika
Anda hendak memilih VGA selain yang disebutkan di atas, berikut adalah
perbandingannya dari masing-masing merek. Tentunya yang sekelas. Seperti
pertandingan tinju, kita tidak mungkin membandingkan kelas ringan dan kelas
berat. (kiri ATI, kanan NVIDIA):
6450 =
GT 520
6570 = GT 430
6670 = GT 440
6750 = GTS 450
6770 = GTX 550ti
6850 = 1gb GTX 460
6870 = GTX 560
6950 = GTX 560ti
6970 = GTX 570
6990 = GTX 590
6570 = GT 430
6670 = GT 440
6750 = GTS 450
6770 = GTX 550ti
6850 = 1gb GTX 460
6870 = GTX 560
6950 = GTX 560ti
6970 = GTX 570
6990 = GTX 590

NVIDIA vs ATI / AMD
image: www.overclock.net
NVIDIA and ATI / AMD is the second major player in the market for computer graphics cards. For those of you who want to buy a computer, and until the election points the graphics card (VGA), must face a difficult choice, choose NVIDIA or AMD? I also faced this problem when I bought the laptop. Laptops equipped with NVIDIA or AMD? To help choose the VGA, I tried to gather information from various sources for you. For the record, here I compare the latest VGA type of two brands, namely NVIDIA GTX 590 and ATI HD 6990.
Technically
Actually, technically, NVIDIA and ATI have their advantages and disadvantages in the system (see specification table). According to other sources, NVIDIA is said to have components that "lost" from ATI. On some benchmark tests, ATI showed better results.
Single monitor and multiple monitors
In the game Crysis, for the same resolution, ie 1920 x 1080, and with the highest graphics quality settings with 8x anti-alias, NVIDIA produce 60 fps, 3 fps is lower than the ATI. Something similar happened also in the game Just Cause 2. NVIDA 90 fps, 96 fps while the ATI.
But apparently when playing Crysis with 3 monitors and setting the highest graphics settings, NVIDIA produces 32 fps, while the ATI lower 2 fps. And if coupled anti-alias setting 8x, NVIDIA produces 23 fps, while the ATI lower 10 fps (13 fps).
Noise
For the noise problem. At the time playing STALKER, with high graphics settings, the GTX 590 performance more "quiet" than HD 6990. Of course, everyone would not want to have a computer sound like a diesel is not it? But take it easy, with a voice that is more "silent" this does not mean reduced performance of the GTX 590.
Price
Price is more expensive than ATI NVIDIA. These higher prices may be causing the GTX 590 is not many in the market. Not to mention, when entry into Indonesia, of course, the price will be more expensive related to tax.
Other issues
After reading various sources, I get a slanted news about NVIDIA. This information is used test the games are relatively long, and both VGA of any brand, not the latest release. But it never hurts to read the article, maybe you can add a material consideration in choosing VGA.
Other references
As a reference, maybe you should also read some of these sites (in English).
Squidoo - Here NVIDIA and ATI profiles are described briefly§
Passmark - Here you can see a comparison chart of all the existing brands of VGA.§ Starting from the high end, mid range, until the low end, along with other comparison charts.
Tom's Hardware - You can see the review, a detailed review here§
New Egg - Actually this is the place to buy computer hardware online.§ But here you can also see the various reviews of people who are already using hardware-specific hardware.
Conclusion
For the price, cheaper than ATI NVIDIA. If you are not really a connoisseur of the game with super graphics quality that loves to play on multiple monitors, ATI option is the right thing. ATI better be good enough for heavy games that you will only play in single monitor.
Like others, if you are a connoisseur of games with super graphics and play it on multiple monitors. Or if you're a professional designer who use multiple monitors.If so, choose NVIDIA.
So, really, it all depends on the function of your computer. Choose carefully your computer, to what does it do for you, as well as other things. And not least, consider the funds you have. Do not be too hard to buy VGA expensive.
Other notes
If you would like to select VGA in addition to those mentioned above, the following is a comparison of each brand. Surely that class. Like a boxing match, it is impossible to compare the lightweight and heavyweight classes. (Left ATI, NVIDIA right):
6450 = GT 520
6570 = GT 430
6670 = GT 440
GTS 450 = 6750

6850 = 1GB GTX 460
6870 = GTX 560
6950 = GTX 560ti
6970 = GTX 570
6990 = GTX 590
