look at this little tool i stumbled into for all you linux freaks (myself including, unfortunately i don't have a nvidia card to try this out on).
IMHO, linux compatibility is the is prolly the only reason that i would buy *shudders* an nvidia card....
ATI has 3d support also on linux, but... it has alot of improving to do. I have a 9800 pro. It works on linux, but it has alot more flaws and incompatibilities than nvidia cards. I know that ATI is working at bettering their linux drivers, but they still have a long way..
dunno if this thread should be here, in the linux threads, or in the OCing threads
