Feel free to correct me if I am wrong guys, but I think the Firestream is a professional videocard for businesses running CAD programs and such. It probably won't be good for gaming.

right now NVIDIA is hands down faster than ATI in folding... I'd rather have a $70 GeForce 9600 GT than any of those cards from a F@H view point.

Back on topic, both of those cards shouldn't even be considered. Your budget is sub-100$? You can fin d a 8800GT or 9600GT for that price!
