Then don't buy nvidia hardware.  Again, simple answer :)

Just out of curiosity, can you recommend a good(similar features to nVidia/ATI) graphic card, for which opensource drivers (including 'all'(at least the most) features) exist?

It should be able to run with Windows too and be able to play 3D games, etc. (I'm honestly interested)

Anything nVidia - NOT ATI!

The nvidia driver support is great. ATI is a pain to get working I have current ATI bugs open right now - driver lock ups, library SONAME problems, See:

I recently found an MSI nVidia 8600GT pci-e overclock edition card for $97. Gives over 10300 FPS in glxgears. ATI support for Linux drives lags well behind nvidia. (but it is improving) If you wait a month until the ATI 8.45 driver is out, things might be different, but that is where it stands now.
