Question which is better over all? NVIDIA GeForce 8300GS vs ATI RADEON X600 PRO?

hi, due to economics I have a choice between two video cards. One is :

nVidia GeForce 8300GS 128MB PCI-E
Memory: 128MB of GDDR2 SDRAM
Controller Speed: 450MHz
On Board Memory Speed: 400MHz
On Board Memory Data width: 64-bit
# of Vertex Shaders: 8 Unified Stream Processors
# of Pixel Shaders: 8 Unified Stream Processors
Slot Requirements: 1 PCIe x16
Maximum Resolution: 1920x1200, 2560x1600 DVI

and the other is:
World’s first PCI Express Graphics Chip
Native x16 lane PCI Express
Double the bandwidth of AGP 8X
Increased memory bandwidth to 12 Gigabytes/sec.
Four extreme parallel 3D rendering pixel pipelines
Two programmable vertex shader pipelines
256MB DDR memory
Full DirectX 9 support
any feed back is appreciate and please add why to the post

You are going to have a problem comparing these cards becuase the 8300GS doesn't actually exist in the NVidia 8xxx range.

It might be a custom video card made for Dell?

I would take the X600, but only becuase I would know what I am buying.
