Which Nvidia Card ?

Post by ASherbuck »

I'm a recent convert after a long affair flirting with Linux, I've currently got a Radeon x1950 and I would like to get away from ATI now that I'm sporting Ubuntu 8.04 and I'm curious what Wine users recommend from Nvidia?

I can't afford the high end stuff I'm looking at Newegg in the $50 - $100 range, I run Steam Apps mostly, dabbled with WoW and WAR but neither are really interesting and occasionally I play an EQ char on one of the independent mods servers so I'm not too intense on graphics.

Any recs?

I got myself GF 9800 GT (Gigabyte model GV-NX98X512H-B) and it works very
well - with both, Linux and Windos - maybe it is not "best of the best" but
work very well for me - however if you can wait, than do so - current Nvidia
cards are behind Radeons (not drivers - hardware) and Nvidia will probably
releas new Geforce soon (christmas time is comming ;] ). Don't get me wrong
- GF 9800 GT/GTX is very good but still - few percents behind new Radeons
(hardware only ATI drivers still sucks :( ).
