If you don't mind using binary drivers, nvidia cards have much better functionality and support under linux.

Yup, i think i am going to get a nvidia 5700 card. How about the install process; can i turn off my pc, install the 5700 card and hook the monitor to it and SLED be ok with that? Or will i need to do it some other way? Will i need to get the nvidia driver for 3D support or should that work out of the box?
SLED should be fine with just switching the cards, but you will probably need to re-do the video setup to get things exactly right. NB When I installed SLED SP1 on my laptop, it automatically installed the nvidia drivers, but I'm not sure exactly how that works when changing the card in an already installed OS.
