Well, your statement is false(IMO) as ATI has more powerful cards in raw benchmarks, but fall behind Nvidia in application testing. Second, you would know that ATi cards come with AMD chipsets and not Intel chipsets. Or possibly it is due to the odd drivers that ATi never likes to release in a timely manner.
and no, I'm not pulling tricks from a hat. You can go look up the benchmarks if ya don't believe me.
Assuming you go through retail stores, it's actually cheaper to buy a 6-foot DVI-HDMI cable than it is to buy a 6-foot HDMI cable. The audio is the only inconvenience.
Intel chipsets do support ATI cards. Also, if an NVIDIA mGPU is to be used with HybridSLI etc. as is in the unibody MacBooks (and in extension, the speculated Mac mini), then it would have to have an NVIDIA chipset, not an Intel one.
The Triumph proved to be one of the better looking and performing pre-paid handsets we'd had the pleasure of holding in our sweaty mitts, but we had one major hangup: the name.

Why nVidia? When ATi is clearly better at lower price points(IMO), while still having one of the top cards around

Why don't they just put a plain old HDMI port as the second display port?

1. It directly competes with Apple TV sales(even though I don't see why Apple would mind)
2. They make $30 if you have to buy a converter from them.
I guess the P45 board I use came out of nowhere eh?

Doesn't ATI release updated Catalyst drivers every single month? NVIDIA doesn't always update that often.
