Default Is it just me?

Is it just my imagination or do Nvidia video cards look so much better in pc games than ATI? I swap a lot of cards around and no matter what the power of the video card, Nvidia cards always seem to look so much better. Heck, even a 9600 GSO looks better to me than the 5870...

lol, I'm the other way around. I found that when I switched to my 4870's for gaming the colors were more vibrant. I guess I gotta be the special kid here.
