I had to replace my GeForce 9400gt card about 3 weeks ago because the color mapping was going in the toilet, and put a EVGA 8400GS in its place, still using the nouveau driver.
Video performance can best be described as sucking dead toads through soda straws, long 4 or 5 second pauses then catchups, which also cut the sound to mostly unintelligible gibberish.
I've never noticed any material difference in colors or speed between Nouveau on my dual DVI 8600GT/G84 and Radeon on several different ATI cards of similar age (or Intel for that matter). What xorg, nouveau, kernel, and distro versions are you using, on what CPU?
