I am looking at buying a new iMac and have a question that I was looking for a bit of advice on from you guys... If I’m not interested in gaming or 3d rendering etc., should I care about getting the ATI card vs the Nvidia?

The kind of stuff I’m interested in is photo editing and the occasional bit of video. I have a Canon 5D Mark II and anyone who has been using one of these in conjunction with a G5 iMac as I have been will know that it requires a bit of horsepower.

But it sounds like the difference between the cards is of more interest to gamers than anyone else...or am I all kinds of wrong?
