I am thinking about replacing my ATI RADEON 9250 PRO with a NVIDA Geforce FX5200 card.

How well is the FX5200 supported under Suse 10.0 ?

Works well, but I would suggest getting a 6200 instead. Is approx. the same price and much faster in certain cases (avoid the TurboCache variants). That said, if you already *have* a 5200, use it.

Would if be worth replacing the ATI card with the FX5200?

IMHO it's always worth replacing an ATI by something else... Hope this changes now after the AMD merger. Matthias Hi Matthias! Why avoid the TurboCache versions? Stability or performance issues? I will not be doing much 3D stuff with it.
