Thanks guys, I just added the Ultra and the X1950 Pro, also I believe the Ultra isn't too different from the GTX (like I said, if it's just clock speed tweaks, I ignore those following words, so I don't list a 7900 GT and GTX).
Running H2V on low settings has been good for me because I've been able to bump up the resolutions (up to my native 1680x1050 res) without too much lag. Like I said, you won't miss much if you tone down the settings, but you will have much better framerates and more resolution/AA options.
And a helpful tip: Nvidia's cards allow you to maintain the aspect ratio if you run a game at a resolution lower than the monitor's native res - the game will stretch to fill as much of the screen as possible, but the aspect ratio remains the same and black bars will be projected on the sides to cover the desktop. This prevents fullscreen games from looking "stretched and fattened" on a widescreen monitor. ATI, unfortunately, requires you to jump through many hoops to do that.
