If we get xfree 4.4 imported there is support for all the new ati and 
nvidia cards(I think all nvidia, I know all ati).  Ati has had the speed 
crown since the 9500 or 9700 came out, but I heard nvidia will be 
reclaiming it in a few months.  I would recommend the ati for 3d work, 
but not on an nforce board.  If you plan to get an nforce board you have 
to get an nvidia card untill there is an updated driver for the nforce 
boards.  If anyone knows different about ati on nforce boards please let 
me know.
