If you want to play games sometimes , then check the nvidia cards.

I've read about others having problems with my budget box card and thought I'd try to buy my way out of it. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good video card that works well with Fedora Core 3 without too much tweaking for around $120? I don't really game too much but I'd like to do a little video editing (once I get kino to read in the files) and I'd like to be able to game if called upon to do so.
Thanks, Asa
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..

I had a 9600 and dumped it for nvidia. ATI drivers are sub-par and didn't support 3D last year. Do they now? 30 minutes (from time of purchase) to install and get my nvidia card running in 3D compared to over a month with ATI for no 3D.
Download the driver from nvidia and follow the instructions. Repeat at kernel updates. Look for the card that will fit your requirements.
