From personal experience, I can say this:
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE GET AN NVIDIA CARD.
I am very happy with my new ATI card. I went through hell with my
nVidia card. So I greatly recommend ATI.
Actually I'm not trying to be crass.  But for every response like the one
above you'll get an equally-emphatic opposite response.  I had problems with
nVidia because I had an older card and the later nVidia drivers just
wouldn't work with it.  I had problems with X freezes, etc., that just would
not go away.  Switched over to an ATI card and have had no problems since.

All I can say is that, I have an ATI Radeon. I got it working in Linux 
faster than in Windows.
Ive not had much experience with NVidia, but ATI works fine for me.
