I excluded anything else from halo because they wouldn't even matter a tiny bit in this conflict.
So we have the Precurors, which can come back from death, bend reality at will and outlived multiple universes.
Then we have the Lovecraft myth, which includes gods that don't give a -blam!- about the universe at all, because they are not dependent on the universe but the universe is dependent on them.
Using citations is encouraged as they are undeniable proof (and also I was not arsed enough to buy and read any of the books, due to shipping). Also coherent reasoning why one is more powerful would be great.
Go!

Im damn well sure precursors win. Not only was there an entire population of them, but they were all older than the universe, capable of creating and bending universes, species, and alternate dimensions. They can come back to life because they themselves are the very CONCEPT of death and life and creation, and are the concept of a concept. They are the concept that concepts even [i]exist[/i]

So on one hand we have gods, and the other we have a super ancient race of monsters who basically transcended themselves into gods. Damn, this is a tough one. I'd probably go with precursors based on the fact that I can't even begin to understand how powerful they are if they were able to transcend mortality and the universe itself.

We are precursors, We are older then the Universe itself, We have created countless species, And we have destroyed them, Now we have created our last, The horrific parasite, Known as the; Flood. Now it is time, Humanity will be tested, If they succeed they will hold the mantle, And if they fail, The flood will rot space-time of all life.

The Great Old Ones are ultimate, as Yog-Sothoth, son of the Nameless Mist, is All-In-One and One-In-All. Great Cthulhu lies dreaming in his house at R'lyeh, never dying, always in slumber until the stars align again. Ithaqua the Wind Walker soars above the sky, limitless in his scope of gust. Nyarlathotep, The Blind, Faceless One twists all into a madness of weird things. That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange aeons, even death may die.

Lovecraft all the way mother-blam!-er, hail cthulhu

only Precursors I know are the ones in the Vault of Glass..
-
I don't know enough about lovecraft to judge.
-
The Precursors would not stand a chance. The fact that they were nearly genocided by the Forerunners (a purely physical entity, though highly advanced), is enough evidence that they would never be able to hold their own against a race of gods whose existences transcend understanding.
