Firstly, Careful with  the generalization...
(especially with multi-texturing based 3D engine.)

Secondly, any ATI and NVidia comparisons would be considered outside of this topic/new post.

PS; Nvidia’s first 8 pipeline GPU and 256bit bus would be the NV35. NV30 is just a 4 pipeline based GPU and 128bit bus.
