And this is the reason:

See I've been toying moving to Nvidia for some time now, primarily due to the fact that Nvidia has far better linux support, and Windows really does become software as a service (like they've done with office 365), then there's little keeping me tied to Windows except games. While ever since AMD bought ATI the linux drivers for AMD GPU's have been getting slightly better (extremely slowly) the possibility of Microsoft buying them means a high likeliness of just "throwing out" the linux code.
So... I may finally get myself an Nvidia card for the very first time since the TNT 2 series (yeah, it's been that long because I keep seeing the same issues pop up time and time again in not only that, but successive series too amongst my friends).
