If you want to play games sometimes , then check the nvidia cards. They 
have a good driver (even though it's binary only).
And it beats ATI... I have an radeon 9500 pro and simply gave up on 
getting the binary drivers to work...
On the nvidia side , my brother only has to rebuild the module when 
upgrading the kernel and everything works fine..
