I simply wonder if it is better to take a graphic card with an ATI or a NVIDIA chipset.

I experienced the FLOSS driver for NVIDA as working better for e.g. transparent windows, than the ATI one. Regarding to the proprietary drivers ATI doesn't support many cards for each version of Catalyst and some older versions of Catalyst won't run on new versions of X, while the proprietary NVIDIA driver usually does support many NVIDIA cards and even older versions usually can be used with newer versions of X.

So NVIDIA is better than ATI, but IMO it's not important what's integrated to the mobo. If everything on the mobo is good, just the graphics should be an ATI, I anyway would try using the ATI and if it won't work as needed, I would get an NVIDA card, for less money.
