I don't know about you guys but I never run a Windows OS on a machine without a corresponding UNIX system as dual boot. Therefore I always use Nvidia cards now

I don't know about you guys but I never run a Windows OS on a machine without a corresponding UNIX system as dual boot. Therefore I always use Nvidia cards now because I like semi-functional drivers in Linux. I guess Linux users aren't a huge percentage but writing useable AMD/ATI drivers for Linux may land a few.

- likpok 17y agoI would have agreed with you until about a year ago, when AMD got it's act in gear and starting releasing better linux drivers. Admittedly, I used only one (and never used an nVidia), but the experience was fine (excepting the growing pains of the initial rereleases of fglrx).
- randallsquared 17y agoI just bought a new computer because the Catalyst driver for Linux wasn't doing it for me (and I had an iMac, so I couldn't easily swap the video card). With my medium-range nVidia 220 GT card, things are enormously better.
