I'd agree, closed-source nvidia drivers for linux are better than closed-source AMD drivers. I'm just saying, open source AMD drivers in the upstream kernel are better than open-source nvidia (nouveau) drivers in the upstream kernel, even if neither are good enough for serious games from the last decade. I boot to Windows 7 for games.
I've had nvidia cards in the past, as well as UT2004 which had a native linux version, and it worked well enough, but performance was still less than half what it was in windows (with the closed-source nvidia driver in linux). And what with xrandr, kernel mode setting, etc, I prefer proper integrated linux support (even without enough 3d acceleration for games).
