X1900XT of course. The 7950GT has:
Large framerate swings compared to X1900XT
Greater performance hit with AA
Texture filtering issues in Quality mode AF, can be minimized by selecting HQ mode AF but incurs a slight performance hit
Noisy nvidia reference cooler.
No HQ AF support.
And the killer, no HDR+AA support.

Sweet so fairly unanimously the X1900 is the way to go then. Thanks for all the help.

I'd personally go with the 7950 GT - better drivers, full screen super-sampling anti-aliasing, TrAA is vastly better than AAA, and a passively cooled version is available.
This is a good point. Fear really does love 512 MB cards.On a side note, most of the games I played this year (F.E.A.R., BF2, Company of Heroes, Quack 4, etc.) were able to utilize 350+MB of frame buffer
