I was using a 9500 before that - both seem to work fine with Xorg 7.3. I've also experimented with a 9800 Pro - which also works fine (but generates too much heat, requiring active cooling whereas the 9600 does not). My experience has been that certainly older ATI cards are fine. Cheers Markhome | help
