Fully supported nvidia card

[Crook$ey]

As the thread title suggests, i am looking to buy a nvidia PCI-E card, that will be fully supported under linux, with all the XGL features, gaming the works, also the card must have to ports, so i can run dual monitors from one card. Budget is around:

£200

$375

297.11 EUR

Thanks, incase it makes a diffrence im running Inetl P4 64bit 3.6GHZ, 1GB DDR ram, and two 19" Samsung Sync Master's, running @ 1280x1024

PS, usinng Ubuntu.

Pretty much all nVidia cards are supported. There are only two drivers for each architecture and this is for current cards and one for legacy cards. Presonally I would recommend getting a GeForce 7xxx, with a balanced combination of RAM quantity versus RAM speed. So if you had the choice between a card with 512MB DDR versus 256MB GDDR3 I'd go for the 256MB option. You should be able to find plenty of cards that will suit.

I don't do much gaming but XGL will run on any half decent card from the last 2-3 years. Try to get a card with pixel shaders for best effect.

If i have a standard PCI-E mobo, will a SLI card work in it?
